Are you for or against the separation of church and state?

#1. Human beings should critically challenge any supernatural claims.

#2. Human beings should recognize the fact that all human beings are flawed and, therefore, require sound logic and reason to accompany leadership.

Ignoring either (and especially both) of these rules invites danger.

#2. This is what Christianity is about flawed people who need help and leadership, we choose the Creator of the universe, He definitely has the credentials. How have you missed this all this time.

Actually, your take on rule #2 violates rule #1, which is to challenge the supernatural.

And that's why rule #1 is ahead of rule #2. God is an invention of human beings. As such, he is limited to the human capacity. He's only as great as the invention itself, which isn't all that great.

So, no matter how you slice it, your stuck with human leadership. So the real question is, do you want deluded and flawed human beings in leadership, or just flawed ones.

Personally, I prefer the latter.
