So flat earth and a hundred other things are wrong.
Yeah "hundred other things are wrong" like worshiping Sunday. Majority of Christian denomination worship Sunday and claim if you don't go to Church on Sunday will make you burn in Hell while yours worships Saturday, so majority of Christians just fail to "yield to Christ".
It seems yielding to Christ is not very safe after all.
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"
