Just ranting. Sorry.

Just ranting. Sorry.
Secular society isnt awesome. Pride, cynism, nihilism, greed, lust, anger are really strong in it.
People of faith are hard to stomach, but seculars are often wild people.

The OP reminds me of the fact that some children deserve (and need) to be spanked.

I was thinking the same thing.  I'll reflect on how wild and insane my secular life is tonight while I listen to Miles Davis records and drink cold brew coffee in my living room.  What shameless hedonism I enjoy.

I'm sitting here listening to an audiobook and working on a new quilt...oh, the wild times I have.

Was more of a wild one when a Catholic school student.

Hey, you should visit Vatican sometimes.
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"

As it turns out, reality bears the exact opposite.

We often say that people don't need religion to be moral. It's also true that an absence of religion is no guarantee of morality.

Anyone who thinks his own group (race, religion or lack thereof, nationality, social class) is superior is a bigot.
