To contend that science "undresses" faith is akin to trying to call a
trump suit in a game of chess. It's meaningless.
The problem is that Faith has power and that is what annoys the more
vorciforous objectors - they don't understand the nature of belief.
True. Napoleon recognized the power of Christian fait (If I may single
it out) when he said:
""I know men and I tell you that Jesus Christ is no mere man.
Between him and every other person in the world
there is no possible term of comparison.
Alexander, Caesar, Charlemagne, and I founded empires.
But on what did we rest the creations of our genius?
Upon force. Jesus Christ founded His empire upon love;
and at this hour millions of people would die for Him."
I'd say he was right.
Millions of people have died for Jesus, a sure sign that the empire was
founded on love.
Millions have died for education, government, eugenics, ethnic
cleansing, and science, a sure sign that yours is a non sequitur.
The claim was made that jesus founded his empire upon love, and that
millions would die for him.
I agree.
Obviously, the point was far too subtle for your enfeebled mind.
