(February 11, 2014 at 10:35 am)Sword of Christ Wrote: You can't really use a Christian who happens to be an asshole (everyone is to some degree) as the template for what Christianity is all about. Use Jesus as the template.


Wait....

Isn't Jesus responsible for the doctrine of infinite punishment for finite crimes?


Not such a good template after all.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
