    This is only really an argument against taking religious texts literally which most people don’t actually do.

    Tell that to the people who think I should be killed (or, at best, jailed and/or sent through re-education) for being a man lying with a man… because they definitely take that part literally (whilst otherwise getting tattoos, eating shrimp cocktail, and sacrificing their children to Molech).

    I’m cool with people having a relationship with the universe. Call it “God” if you must. But, that relationship is definitely personal.

      Thats why i make a distinction between religious person and spiritual person.

      Religion can be spiritual and definitely started as such but there is nothing spiritual left in a modern nat-C
