does christianity truly concern itself with truth | godfree110158's Blog

"As for Christianity's alleged concern with truth, Christian faith is to
free inquiry what the Mafia is to free enterprise. Christianity may be
represented as a competitor in the realm of ideas to be considered on the
basis of its merits, but this is mere disguise. Like the Mafia, if
Christianity fails to defeat its competition by legitimate means (which is
a foregone conclusion), it resorts to strong-arm tactics. Have faith or be
damned--this biblical doctrine alone is enough to exclude Christianity from
the domain of reason."

George H. Smith, "Atheism, The Case Against God"
