MODERATORS
Or seriously enough to think about it, not just swallow everything. Christianity is a religion who praised critical thinking for centuries because the Bible is a book which should be studied. It was written by intelligent people who made a point to let contradictions and diverse points of view in order to let the reader decide.
Only for as long as nobody knew any better. It’s also a religion that put people like Galileo in jail, for daring to think differently. And burn them alive at the stake. Unless we forget the Spanish inquisition, or the crusades?
Galileo was Christian as much as the Pope who condemned him.
Moving the goalposts, are we?
How so?
Now it’s feigned ignorance…
