There is believeing in God, and then there is believing that everything written in the Bible is literally true, and then adding a leavening of old cultural susperstitions that fit into the general pattern…

God IS an “old cultural superstitions that fit into the general pattern.” This kind of rationalizing is like… my god is not as dogmatic as your god, there fore I can make fun of your theology but my theology is untouchable.

Charles said it perfectly above “This is what people who believe in science and rationality are up against — millions of drones indoctrinated with superstitious nonsense.”
