MY QUESTION
What has your experience been with respect to flat earthers?
You tell me. This is a screenshot from the flat-earther book on Amazon, and does it look like it was written by an atheist or a religious person? If it's by a religious person can you guess which religion is the writer?
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"
