TimB: They didn’t bring the lions back out into the greater community to multiply and eat other people.
Sree: Lions in the Coliseum symbolizes Christian persecution in history. These days, atheists have taken over from the lions.
TimB: Really? Was that a Christian I had for breakfast. Hmmm. They taste like bacon.
Sree: Our Astronauts had to be Christians so that they would be unafraid of death, going to the moon. (paraphrased)
TimB: Being religious doesn’t necessarily make someone unafraid of death.
Sree: People who are afraid of death are not religious.
TimB: How about this lady > She was dying, with her 5 year old in their remote and cutoff cabin. She had had an accident and was bleeding to death. She was lying on the floor with her 5 year old child crying not only in terror but in the rending of the intensely raw dyadic bond that the child has with her mother. And the woman’s final prayer -“Dear Jesus. please, I fear for what this will do to my child and for how she will survive…”
TimB: And there are people who are not religious who are not particularly afraid of death.
Sree: Do you know of any to back up your claim?
TimB: me
TimB: Btw, are you claiming that none of the men who went to the moon were not religious?
Sree: Guess so. Look up info on the Apollo Program. Our astronauts read from the Bible while orbiting the moon and brought a copy of the Bible to the lunar surface.
TimB: You’re probably right. At least none of them could have admitted agnosticism or atheism. The whole NASA program, especially early on, was rooted in the competition against the Soviet Union who were nasty Godless Communists.
Sree: Christian families don’t break up and their familial ties extend throughout their community. Togetherness is essential till death do they part.
TimB: Really? Now you are saying that no Christians get divorced? Wow.
Sree: Not all who consider themselves Christians are people of the one true faith. They are copies of the real thing.
TimB: Good Grief, you must have eaten a lot of burgers and steaks from the Holy Cow, because you have suddenly seemed to have become a fundamentalist hypocrite.
