Gospel of Unbelief

That's exactly how I felt when I realized I had to read another book by this man. I'm so opposite of this man that I have a hard time having to write about him. Comparing Christians to herd animals, sympathy for weakness, and that pity is a bad thing???? Sympathy, compassion, empathy are traits that I very much value and admire in people. It in no way makes these people weak or less valuable as a human being. It takes great courage and a strong will and personality to hold on to the very qualities that make us human.
Mankind can prove him wrong over and over and he will not be able to recognize it because of his closed mindedness.I realize that there have been many wars fought over religion, and many people have sacrificed their lives in the name of their religion but I believe that those people fought and died for what they believed in. I do not condone their ways but I respect their right to choose their beliefs, whether I understand them or not. I also believe that the people that choose morality and values over living like animals are making the right choice. Humans are flawed, but that is what contributes to our originality and our ability to be above other animals on this earth.
