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"

A God died yesterday, that is Ryuho Okawa, aged 66. He was a founder of the religious movement called Happy Science where people believed him to be the incarnation of a supreme being from Venus as well as incarnation of a god called "El Cantare" and a number of other beings, including Hermes and Gautama Buddha.
Consequently, his second wife, Shio Okawa, born in 1985, is believed by members of Happy Science to be the incarnation of the goddess Gaia.
