12. Theology

It's like arguing over whether Santa Claus comes down the chimney head first or feet first.

Thousands of years of uselessness. And it seems most religions kill people over things that aren't even in the original holy books, but theological crap piled up over the centuries.



This of course also relates to the "Dennett is a poppy-head" lame hit piece making the rounds. "You can't possibly understand religion unless you know all about the useless baloney we've made up about it since it started".

Yes you can. You can understand it's made up guesses by profoundly ignorant ancient peoples.
