I am up too late and Christian programming has come on television. Just now I have listened horrified to a man telling a story in which he stated outright that it was because the man in the story had remained faithful to his church that his son had returned alive from a war. He stated outright that if that man had left his church, his son would have come back in a box.
People are people! They are not object lessons for others to learn from; they have lives to live in their own right. I am so very sick and tired of people talking about the hardships of others as a lesson for them, it makes me want to scream. Any god that would torment or kill someone - or refrain from doing so - for the education, reward or punishment of a third party is a disgusting, immoral creature and deserves our scorn.
To calm down, please enjoy these images of Jesus beating up the Greek gods.
