It's sort of amazing, in an 'are you shittin' me' kinda way.

Just when you think the bar is so low that no can make it under...they find someone who can...easily.

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"

I'm not sure how much the young couple being denied room at the inn had to do with Christianity's founding. If they'd stayed at a four-star hotel they'd simply have substituted a different bit of moaning.

You're right. The truth is that there is really no moral message to be made from the Bible.

Au contraire.....

PT Barnum knew the message very well.

And for the evangelicals, there's a sucker born again every minute.
