This is great

I agree with this guy 100%.

There is a popular t-shirt with a picture of Christ saying “I never said that”.  Much of Christianity, in my view, falls under that heading.

No sane person, studying the history of Christianity, can be anything but nauseated at much of its history.  Obviously, I am not and never have been one to also overlook the good it has done, but my goodness, I have images floating in my mind of churches filled with women and children being burnt to the ground over minor points of theology, and well constructed rain gutters literally flowing with human blood.

This before we even get to the Inquisition, the Reformation, the burning of “witches”, and everything else.

This guy puts it great, though: the goal is to become human, to find your spark, to find what connects you to God, what attracts you to the light, what enables goodness to shine, what makes you happy to work for everything beautiful.  These are all worth dying for repeatedly.
