Faith - Can it Go Too Far?
#7
RE: Faith - Can it Go Too Far?
I think a more reasonable version of the story would go like this.

God: Abraham I want you to kill your son.

Abraham: Really God?

God: Yes Abraham, kill your son.

Abraham: Okay God.

(Abraham reaches for a knife and lifts into the air)

God: Holy fuck! You were actually going to kill your own kid just because I said so? I was just kidding, but Jesus Christ you are a moronic asshole.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
