Oh for shit sake! Christians are again indulging in their right to be uneducated in public places by not even looking in the dictionary to see what word "religion" means and attack atheists about their "religion of lack of religion" in Sunday Times Magazine.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
