The DWR Sunday Disservice – Proselytizing for Jeebus – The Real Story
January 29, 2012 in Religion | Tags: Arguments for Atheism, christian truth, Dan Barker/Ex-Preacher, The DWR Sunday Religious Disservice | by The Arbourist | Comments closed
Former Preacher Dan Barker summarizes the ‘good news’ in less than two minuets. How many people would sign up if they were actually served up the truth about christianity as presented by Mr.Barker. I’m guessing that the cognitive dissonance would be too much for most people in the non-gilded form presented below as the god who loves/tortures is quite a stretch for most people.
The problem is that people do not get this version. It starts at a young age, children do not have the capacity to make rational decisions and have to rely on their parents for much of their information about the world. Being indoctrinated with the poison of religion diminishes the capacity of the human spirit and the intellect. The damage can be undone and many do embrace reality and rationality, unfortunately though, many do not.
I propose that religion should be framed as Dan Barker proposes because people would at least have a better idea of what they were getting into.
