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"

Quotes by William Lane Craig

"American society has already become post-Christian. Belief in a sort of generic God is still the norm."

"For a person who is thoroughly secularized, you may as well tell him to believe in fairies or leprechauns as in Jesus Christ! That’s how absurd the message of Christ will seem to him."

"Western Europe has become so secularized that it’s hard for the gospel even to get a fair hearing."

"Perhaps one day we'll colonize Mars. If so, one of the first signs that our colony is getting really civilized will be the formation of a Flat Mars Society. Indeed, the main purpose of our civilization may turn out to be just that: to spread flatness to the stars." John Sladek
