It is that haranguing voice of authority that utters condemnations when one steps too far over the line, an all-too-human screech. It is not the voice of a well-reasoned moral compass but that of a diabolical theocrat.

so the problem is fundies ... not religion. Been saying that since i was in the sixth grade. your almost there ... keep thinking and talking.

That's what this entire thread is about.

A good steward? Meaning....?
"his purposes"? Meaning....?
