Colbert’s question reveals more about his ignorance than about Christianity and it’s deep intellectual history. I find that many critics of Christianity have only a shallow understanding of it.
I would assume here that Colbert is an atheist?
Or, more to the point, an anti-theist?
You can include a lot of very deep thinkers and highly educated know it alls in that lot of not understanding.
Dante, for one, discerned the proper place in Hell for those like Colbert.
“I find that many critics of Christianity have only a shallow understanding of it.”
Same goes for critics of COTUS and conservatives. But, they don’t need understanding, only feeeeeeelinnnnnnngs.
God, please help America.
