Paul's Writings Underpin Western Thought

Quote:"God does not inflict correction on the world as if he were some unskilled laborer who is incapable of building something properly the first time around; God has no need to purify what he has built by means of a flood or a conflagration (as they teach)."


Celsus, c 180 CE

Minn, I will always love your doggedness on attacking absurd claims. But, as I have said many times, there is no way to force religion off the face of the planet. I will still side with the likes of a Malala, Martin Luther King Jr, or Ann Frank.

My Mom went to her death a Catholic, she believed in God and she was my biggest supporter. Was she full of shit on her beliefs? Sure, but was she a bad person? No.

At this point in history, it is extremely important to fight hyper nationalism and not ignore that it is based on religion. But even given that, we cannot as a species afford to become what we say we hate.
