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"

Yeah, stuff like that. I suppose they're learning about creationism too.

A lot of more moderate Christians like to pretend that their religion doesn't foster this kind of shit, but here's evidence that it does. I feel sorry for this guy's wife who has to ride in that pickup truck. It's basically an indicator that the more power the religion has, the more endangered women's rights become.
