New York Times - What It Means to Worship a Man Crucified as a Criminal. A God who allows suffering is a mystery, but so is a God who suffered.

How can someone ostensibly considered “intelligent” believe this garbage and write a column like this? He of course glosses over the unanswerable question of why there is suffering, evil and pain in this world if the world was created by this supposed all powerful benevolent creator. And if that supposed creator is indeed all powerful, why doesn’t he use that power abolish suffering, evil and pain? Perhaps that creator isn’t so powerful or benevolent? What a bunch of hogwash.

When will humans wake up to reality? Religion is a form of mythology, pure and simple. And a mythology that is responsible for a great deal of suffering and evil in the world throughout history up to today. Time to grow up humanity. Admit the truth. Stop believing lies. Stop making up stories.
