Recently heard on The Atheist Experience with Matt Dillahunty- “I am a Christian and I’ve kinda been thinking lately…”

This is bad news.

For religion.

My wife and I were just having this discussion. How many billboards have seen with a quote like this- REASON IS THE ENEMY OF FAITH?

Once someone starts thinking, that may lead to questions. Questions may lead to doubt. Then more questions. Then more doubt…..and it continues.

I was raised in a Lutheran home. Here’s a quote from Martin Luther:

“Reason is a whore, the greatest enemy that faith has; it never comes to the aid of spiritual things, but more frequently than not struggles against the divine Word, treating with contempt all that emanates from God.”
