On the evolution of God wiki-page... he says
It tells people that they can control these causes and increase the ratio of good to bad results.
This is 100% incorrect about Christianity, Read Job, Acts, Revelations, or even Jesus... If you live for Christ the bible promises you will be persecuted... That seems like the ratio increases on the bad side...
He says
- It is hard to falsify or disprove.
- Which by no offence is again a very common idea, but I like to point back to LDS where you can disprove it due to incorrect city locations, no historical evidence, and incorrect predictions such as they say the navajo's are related to Jews, but DNA testing proves otherwise... hence the religion is false...
He also says the the religious cherry pick, so explain to me what I have cherrypicked...
On a side note, I am really disheartned that modern books create straw-man of Christianity by grouping it with other religions...
Let me give you an example... If we have a car that truly works, it can run and won't break down... But a man dislikes the idea of a car and gathers every attempt at building one to show how ludicrous this idea is... All he has to do is show a few similarities between the working car and the nonworking cars, and the audience is oblivious to the fact 1 of the cars really works...
