People Who Harbor Strong Convictions Without Evidence

We Have Christians Against Muslims Against Jews, And No Matter How Liberal Your Theology, Merely Identifying Yourself As A Christian Or A Jew Lends Tacit Validity To This Status Quo. People Have Morally Identified With A Subset Of Humanity Rather Than With Humanity As A Whole.

It Is Time We Recognized That Belief Is Not A Private Matter; It Has Never Been Merely Private. In Fact, Beliefs Are Scarcely More Private Than Actions Are, For Every Belief Is A Fount Of Action In Potential.

It Is Time That We Admitted That Faith Is Nothing More Than The License Religious People Give One Another To Keep Believing When Reasons Fail.

It Is Merely An Accident Of History That It Is Considered Normal In Our Society To Believe That The Creator Of The Universe Can Hear Your Thoughts While It Is Demonstrative Of Mental Illness To Believe That He Is Communicating With You By Having The Rain Tap In Morse Code On Your Bedroom Window.

There's No Way To Reconcile Islam With Christianity. This Difference Of Opinion Admits Of Compromise As Much As A Coin Toss Does.
