I'm having a little trouble with all the contradictions I see in what is loosely referred to as "rational thought."
Here are 3 of the 20+ contradictions (paraphrased accurately I think) which I have identified:
Contradiction #1
Argument A: What makes you think the God of a univrse would care about a little speck like you? Don't be arrogant
Argument B: Why doesn't your God show himself to us and stop evil?
Contradiction #2
Argument A: Your God is too intolerant
Argument B: Your God saves an awful lot of stupid, arrogant people.
Contradiction #3
Argument A: Christians are so divided, I can't figure out which denomination is right
Argument B: Christians should think for themselves
Maybe you guys should get my whole list and hold a council, before the faithful figure out that maybe "rational thought" is in the mind of the beholder, and that assuming otherwise is more dangerous than becoming a Christian
