My conclusion is that there is no reason to #believe any of the dogmas of traditional #theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true. Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.

Theists:
PRAISE THE #LORD!
Who already knows everything you'll ever think, do, and say.
Who's always known the exact time, place, and manner of the praising.
Who can't be much of a god if he's so emotionally stunted that he has to hear in real time the praise he's forever known he'd hear.
The world that I should wish to see would be one freed from the virulence of group hostilities and capable of realizing that happiness for all is to be derived rather from co-operation than from strife. I should wish to see a world in which #education aimed at mental freedom rather than imprisoning the minds of the young in rigid armor of #dogma calculated to protect them through life against the shafts of impartial #evidence.

Theists:
Many #religions claim to be the true one. At most, only one can be.
How can we tell it’s yours?
I mean by intellectual integrity the habit of deciding vexed questions in accordance with the #evidence, or of leaving them undecided where the evidence is inconclusive. This virtue, though it is underestimated by almost all adherents of any system of #dogma, is to my mind of the very greatest social importance and far more likely to benefit the world than #Christianity or any other system of organized #beliefs.

@boor #ProsperityGospel is one of the reasons #Evangelicals voted for #Trump. They beLIEve he has been blessed by #GOD. And #Trump used it like a tool.
Faith is not a virtue.
Faith can be used to support *any* belief, whether or not it's true. If faith can support both true and false conclusions, then it cannot be a reliable pathway to truth.
Faith supports beliefs that fuel actions that have harmful consequences daily around the world.
Faith is the excuse people give when they don't have a good reason to believe.
