King Arthur:
Bef're thy mother, twast known as the jumpoline.
I’ve known people [Christians] over the years who have said, “If my beliefs are at odds with the facts, so much the worse for the facts.”
- Bart D. Ehrman
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"
