Because the inner spiritual significance of the Word remains closed to you, you blaspheme against it. The Word opens up when approached with humility and receptivity to the Spirit of Truth. It could do that for you if you let it.

Platitude is the Word that immediately came to mind while reading this.

His platitude boils down to, "if you believe it, then you believe it." No reasoned assessment at all of whether it is defensible to believe it.

No matter how keenly aware a christian might be of the importance of pretending to be a rational human being in his discourse with real human beings, his christianity would still prevent him from keeping up the necessary and beneficial pretense for long.
