“I rely on reason, thank you very much.
I don’t have imaginary friends or overlords- especially the melodramatic kinds shaped by human imagination.”
You have some very solid points and some great insight... it’s a pity to ruin that with the outright slander of something others hold sacred. It’s well within your rights to believe as you wish. An answer that stopped at the first sentence would have been more genteel and answered the question quite well... your full answer went beyond reason and into the realm of the unreasonable. Your wish, I believe was to slap down the person with whom your argument began, but instead you struck all who hold a belief in God.
For a person who claims to rely on “reason” that’s seems to be uncharmingly uncharacteristic.
Well, unnecessary mutilation of genitals to appease a god is pretty backward, however much one might want to spin the barbarity.
