I think so...I would agree about the gaps, Halfwise. I think some have claimed "revelations" offering them knowledge of God or "the truth" - but that's not at all convincing to those who haven't.<br /><br />Beats me, too, how people could have such little doubt. Sometimes I think that if their justifications for slaughter weren't based on religion there'd always be some other excuse. The godless totalitarians of the 20th century found "reasons" to slaughter multi-millions at a go. Something in human nature?

But it beats me why anyone would feel he has so much knowledge of God that he can slaughter those who believe differently than he does.Zookeeperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07454330013436283393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-12196622465017033862010-12-25T11:41:53.017-08:002010-12-25T11:41:53.017-08:00Right back atcha, BCF!Right back atcha, BCF!JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10884491329536733335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5649264476699871612.post-85357624434948645082010-12-24T20:12:52.546-08:002010-12-24T20:12:52.546-08:00Merry Christmas!Merry Christmas!Blazingcatfurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05260488914265052543noreply@blogger.com
