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"

I’d rescue Boebert and Greene, with the proviso that I could give them each a broken beer bottle and lock them in a room to settle their differences.
I’m thinking pay-per-view on this one.

Really? I thought Jesus was still being created in the image of individuals/groups, very versatile fellow is Jesus.
I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they'd never expect it.
