I wouldn't say Christianity is any more than "an image of emotional appeal" that it has going for it....I mean seriously, what else is there?
Discipulus laid his cards on the table. It came down to:
1) Jesus gave me the self-confidence I lacked.
2) Atheism makes life appear too scary so I'd rather pick a religion out of a hat.
3) The Gospels are historical biographies.
I'd say that image is all Christianity really amounts to: It is an image of things that aren't real and at bottom people know they don't believe them for intellectual reasons. There's literally nothing else that many of these people would accept on the terms that they accept Christianity on, like um.. every other single religion or conspiracy. (Okay, I wouldn't underestimate too much here). They believe in "deepities," made up words and ideas that sound deep and yet there's no substance to any of them. They're nothing more. Nothing less.
