‘I can’t be having with this.’ - Esmeralda Weatherwax
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"
Who is going to tell them?

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!
Yeah, that's why I ask who will be the one to tell them that they will listen to. I mean if Carl Sagan couldn't reach to them then who can?

You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis. (August 20, 2020 at 5:17 pm)downbeatplumb Wrote:(August 20, 2020 at 9:00 am)Fake Messiah Wrote: I bet Elon Musk can get it into orbit!
