The Kinder God of the New Testament
#24
RE: The Kinder God of the New Testament
A new commandment I give you, that you love one another.

When love is done in obedience to a commandment, how can it be real? Christians treat each other any old kind of way and it's all right as long as they do it in love. I like Paul's description of love but don't know too many Christians who actually follow it so they're not obeying the new commandment.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
--Voltaire
