The only way I could believe .......

RE: The only way I could believe .......
The tired parent punishing kids nonsense again

I don't put my nephew in a corner to punish him I put him in the corner to correct an anti social behavior. I don't punish him because of some petty notion that my authority has been defied I correct his behavior out of a desire to help him be socially conscience . But I'm not always right and if I'm in the wrong my nephew has every right to disobey me . The idea we should teach children to be obedient is bullshit. We should teach children that authority is to be questioned on content .

The idea that hell or gods wraith is justice is bull in reality it's just sadism

But of course in the religious mentality good and obedience to authority are the same thing

This angry desert god is a a miserable prick.  Doubtless modeled after the men who created him.

indeed a god is a farther who is 90% of the time absent and the rest only shows up to murder people for questioning him. And defining that questioning  or acting in a way he personally doesn't like and calling it "Evil"
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
