The Science of Religion

[Bretton Garcia]

11. Yes, faith is the problem. With its attacks on Reason. But?

But? If Christians won't listen to Reason, many however do have faith in ... The Bible. Its authority. And far more often than churches know, the Bible supports science.

So when I talk to Christians, preachers, I try to use lots of quotes from one of the few things they claim to listen to: the Bible.

Since I was forced to go to Sunday School and then church, for years, I happen to know Bibles, sermoms, all too well. And I just quote the parts that Christians neglected or misread. Giving them a better reading.

Much of the Bible for instance, seems at first to explicitly attack "test"ing. But then? I quote the other parts. Much of the Bible seens to attack the "mind," for instance, too But then there is supposed to be a "mind" in Christ (1 Corin. 2.16; 14.14-19).

So yes, faith destroys much of their reason. But as long as they have some faith in, say, the Bible? Then there's at least a partial opening to reason, and science, even there. Though it is hard to find.

And that opening, I think? Finally ...dissolves the Bible and Christianity. From the inside.
