1. Assume all motives for all actions were purely religious,
2. Show that those responsible had a correct understanding of the Bible and its precepts and
3. Always acted in accordance with these precepts.
Point 2!
Is there such a thing as a correct understanding of the bible?
Every christian has a correct understanding which they're comfortable with.
The bible itself is so open and vague that no 2 Christians agree on what is correct.
Point 2 is just as mysterious as the god itself. Coincidence?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
Know God, Know fear.
