Evidence and causes for doubt
#44
RE: Evidence and causes for doubt
Asking me what would make me believe there is a God is like asking me what would make me believe the Earth is flat or that sky is a blanket (something else that both Bible & Koran claims to be true) and the answer is nothing, because it's not how the world functions.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
