RANT: Recently a friend (probably ex-friend now) accused me of hating Christians. I just read an article written by a friend of mine JT Eberhard. He was actually referring to Richard Dawkins when he wrote the piece, but it describes my thoughts better than I could have ever written them. Hey, maybe he hates that some people try to make rules and force other humans to live by them based not on compassion but rather what a particular group of people from 2,000+ years ago said we should do. Do you think that could be it? Maybe he thinks the gullibility thrust upon children with threats of hell slows down human progress and creates unnecessary suffering in the world and, brace yourself, Dr. Dawkins finds indoctrinated gullibility and suffering unappealing because he cares about the world!
