If God were actually worthy of human worship, His existence would be as obvious as the Sun or the Moon. The fact that all religions require believers to rely on unsubstantiated faith proves such religions are seriously disconnected from objective reality. Given mankind's current understanding of how physical reality actually operates, only the First Amendment prevents modern churches from being legally prosecuted for the egregious and… [cont.]
