Sam, Paul and all MOQers:
Paul asked Sam:
What would happen if you announced to your congregation that you were an
atheist?
Sam replied:
Already have. When I explained what I meant, and how it is perfectly
orthodox, I thought they were quite excited by it. Liberated even.
Paul asked Sam:
What would they say if you told them that He didn't create man in His own
image and doesn't, couldn't possibly, listen to their prayers?
Sam replied:
Well, then I wouldn't be teaching orthodox Christianity. I'd resign before I
taught that.
dmb says:
Let me get this straight. As a priest, you can deny the existence of God
before your congregation but would resign before denying that this
non-existent God created man and listens to his prayers? That's nonsense,
isn't it? This is a pretty good example of what I mean when criticizing your
position as incoherent, that it makes no sense.
