Well I just thought that if people had some other interesting informations about this like AFTT47 which I didn't know or maybe they had a brush with these kind of people in person. And maybe someone could tell me where this will all lead to? Is this something that is still a problem? Is it going to get bigger like global warming denialism? Someone must have an answer.
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"
