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"

The last part is confusing... "tell god you are trusting his son" but god is supposed to be all knowing, so why would I need to tell him anything?

Before I saw my first episode of Rick and Morty, I thought it was another "edgy" kids show, like Ren and Stimpy.
I am now a fan.
Disappointing theists since 1968!

That's one pretty fucked up easter basket.
