(9,862 posts)That pastor has gone through the same questioning as I have and did, and was likely troubled by their own questions. I turned my back on that crap. And yet, they found some salve, some palliative, some particular phrasing in the Bible to help soften the doubt so as not to upset the applecart.
There is likely no question that I could ask that the pastor had not already considered. That is, if the pastor ever really examined their faith. Their answer is likely to be pablum, or yammering on about how faith is needed.
They can have their religion. They can chant their chants, pray their prayers and cast their sacred spells all they want, and all I want is to keep their crap out of the public square. Our Constitution and Founders gave churches the right to exist, but also seeks a separation of state and church. That's what I work towards.
