“If there is a Creator-God, it has used methods of creation that are indistinguishable from nature, it has declined to make itself known for all of recorded history, it doesn't intervene in affairs on earth, and has made itself impossible to observe. Even if you believe in that God... why would you think it would want to be worshiped?” IfsThinkingWantBelieveMadeEarthUsedKnownImpossibleCreationMethodAffairCreatorIf You BelieveCreator God Author:David G.

“If you are religious, you believe that your religion is the 'right' one—and, in many cases, all others will be sent to hell. Similarly, a nationalist believes his or her nation is better or more advanced—and a racist believes that an inherent difference between each race make his or her ethnicity superior. All of these ideologies spawn the hate, philosophical disagreements, and prejudices that have been the catalysts for various atrocious acts throughout history.” IfsBelieveHas BeensHateNationsDifferencesReligiousRaceCasesHellPrejudicePhilosophicalVariousSuperiorsIdeologyRacistInherentDisagreementCatalystEthnicitySpawn Author:David G.
