Should an exception be made for religious people in the modern era?
Thursday, August 18th, 2011Question by Desiree: Should an exception be made for religious people in the modern era?
Religious people in the modern era have access to a lot more knowledge, information and ideas than religious people of former times. Therefore, religious people in the modern era have to deny, manage or willfully ignore a lot more knowledge, information and ideas to maintain faith in their absurd bible myths, right? I mean, you can say that ‘religious people’ is too broad a term that covers legendary Greek philosophers to brain-dead Fox News anchors, but those legendary Greek philosophers did not have access to the internet and the wealth of knowledge, information and ideas at their fingertips. Therefore, an exception needs to be made; religious people in the modern era are radically different to religious people of former times, right?
