REPLY TO WELL-INTENTIONED CHRISTIANS TRYING TO EXPLAIN
Tags: huh
You Christians certainly have a complicated religion! So many words! My goodness! I'm just not smart enough to make sense of all that. The Jews and Moslems and Hindus and Buddhists and Jains and Baha'is and Socratics and Taoists and Confucians and Wiccans and Mormons and Rastafarians and Deists all have complex religions, too, and their holy books test my credence just as yours does. I'm slowly making my way through them, though, a little at a time, thinking and comparing them all, trying to understand all these different gods and rules and terms and claims and stuff. While I read and think and study I'm hoping that I don't find myself in a situation where I have to kill somebody before I die—in this torture-torn and war-tormented vast confusing sea—and that I can be kind to the people I meet along the way and maybe share with them a meal and a laugh and a hug, ordinary earthly joys more than heaven enough for a simple little old man like me.
