Maybe they freely choose to do so and maybe they have no say in the matter. Good enough to read them for filth, either way, if you ask me. Or is that optional, for a christian...lol? I certainly don't envy their task of needing to reimagine their religion as they learn more and more how wrong they were and have been (whether in reality or in light of changing social mores). Self inflicted wound though, imo.
Yeah, I’m not convinced that the diversity of Christian minutiae is a very strong defense against the criticism of Christian beliefs. Simply because not all Christians accept transubstantiation doesn’t mean it’s not an absurd thing to believe.
