You learn a thing or two when you read the words of someone who believes exactly opposite to what you yourself hold to be true. Sometimes, it can be kind of demoralizing.
But, I wait and watch, learning what the godless say, hoping I will one day be able to better counter them.
One thing I would like to point out in that article. PZ Myers quotes Charles Darwin. Of particular interest to me were these words of his (Darwin's):
"I can indeed hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished.
And this is a --------- [awful] doctrine."
I have seen Christianity labeled a death cult more than one time on this guy's blog. God help those who cannot see beyond this world and even those who would care more about a father, brother, friends...
