I don't get how does God give someone meaning in life? Is it because they think they would kill themselves if they didn't believe that suicide is a sin? Or that the thought that God loves them gives them meaning in life? - but how? And if so, why does God have to love them to have meaning in life but love from another human(s) doesn't give them meaning in life?
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"
