Another Good Reason to be a Christian

[Dystopia]

Brian, it still makes sense today for a large number of people in the world. I told you yesterday that not everyone lives in a democracy with human rights, not everyone knows facts about evolution, psychology, biology and general science. I can freely not believe without repercussions and find other ways to cope with pain, but some folks really need it. Wilful ignorance would be to shit on facts without any viable reason. I think the majority of theists are not wilfully ignorant, just unintentionally. Nurturing also plays a part, as well as circumstances.
If it's about gaps there's still many to fill. We know little about the universe compared to what we will know in another 100 years - And the cycle goes on. I mean, scientists and philosophers have done a great job, but we are still far from perfection and now we risk running out of resources in a century if we don't change.

Neil Tyson said that if you hate someone for believing in creationism if they don't know facts or are ignorant it's not only disrespectful but it's unfair. There's something in some people's brains that prevents them from not believing. How else are there elite scientists, far smarter and wiser than you and me that believe in a personal god?
