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"

Last year one young man got a 9 pounder cannon. (Fired 9 pound cannon balls. That's 408 9mm bullets.) He loaded it wrong. "It's be louder and go further if we put more powder in it." No nondestructive testing done on that 150 year old cannon.
We can only hope that they hadn't yet reproduced. We don't need another turd floating in the gene pool.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
