The Horrors of Religion (Religion)

Dhw, 15/9/08: Bear it in mind that the above are statements by a "professional" preacher, i.e. paid by the Christian church to spread the word. - Mark: Pure ad hominem. - You seem to have misunderstood the context of my post on 15/9/08. I referred to your professional credentials only in order to add weight to your rebuttal of Edinburgh4's literalist interpretation of the Bible. For instance, he insists that John 3:18 means all non- Christians, including those born BC, are doomed, whereas you say categorically, "it is absurd to believe that John thought this." My post was an attempt to encourage Carl still further by citing you as a representative of what he called "a kinder form of Christianity". - Ad hominem? Honi soit qui mal y pense.
