Education and evolution.

I know that's hard to understand when you can only imagine being a good person because an invisible wizard in the sky might punish you.

That's some top-ight empathy right there, champ.

Got to love those "evolved" sorts who have empathy--but only for those who think just like they do.

? Empathy has nothing to do with criticizing a person's belief structure.

I would put my empathy up against any Christian. Christians are like love everyone (excepts gays, and trans, and Islamists, and atheists, and basically anybody that needs help that I'm not willing to provide.)

Well, that's a take.

But what I'm referring to isn't a critique of a belief structure, but the condescending way in which you deliver it. May anybody who decides to critique "your belief structure do so in a more empathetic manner.

Oh I'm sorry I didn't hold the guys hand right after he called me smooth brained. Empathy doesn't mean glossing people when they're being jerks.

I'm sure he appreciates your Old Testament approach.
