Check out Julia Sweeney's experience of trying the No-God glasses for a few moments and discovering that the sky doesn't fall, after all, and she doesn't suddenly feel like running around MURDERING PEOPLE... it's funnier "live," but the transcript also conveys her thinking (and mine): http://www.american-buddha.com/lit.letgoofgodsweeney.5.htmPhilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115141650963300011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2619743764213415433.post-25236240857048413782013-04-27T10:20:49.735-05:002013-04-27T10:20:49.735-05:00Your "epic battles" are very clever &...Your "epic battles" are very clever & entertaining, Evan! But, "people must do as God tells them to do even if it sounds weird"-?! That's the kind of thinking that gets innocent airline passengers and marathon runners killed and maimed. The willingness of parents to murder their own children at the behest of an inner voice kills trust, even when the killer's hand is stayed by another inner voice. "If God did not exist, then there would not be anything to hold a person back." Really?! Think about this a little more. Why aren't atheists, agnostics, humanists, naturalists, et al running around MURDERING PEOPLE? Guess they've acquired a sense of morality and self-restraint from some other source.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02115141650963300011noreply@blogger.com
