Indeed, but again unless the person is completely delusional he or she will have to face facts.. I know that is your typical arguement against christianity and yes I do see the irony here, but the truth of the matter is there is substance beyond mindless unchallenging tradition and obediance.
Quote:I have to admire the sleight of hand, though, my hat's off to the con man who came up with 'do your very best to believe in what I'm selling and when you do, you'll know that what I'm selling is real' and figured out how to get people to actually try it.
Taking your hat off to God puts you 1/2 way there.. now all you got to do is follow through.
