So, do you find it threatening if it's nothing? Why do people oppose me?
I don't specifically disagree, but I still question.
I suppose Christianity as a secular philosophy can make a lot of sense, if you focus in on the parts where Jesus talks about compassion, brotherhood, charity and speaks out against greed and hypocrites.
And I'm also glad you don't believe in any of the Biblical garbage that's demonstrably false, dangerous, stupid or hurtful. It's more than I can say of a lot of Christians out there.
I'll still question your beliefs, but that isn't a sign that I'm hostile towards your them. I simply don't understand but I want to.
