The Center That Holds || The Wood Between the Worlds 

What makes you think your faith is respectable? Jesus Christ says 'Faith is worthless since you can't expect mountains to move in obedience to your orders.' Claims of free-will & morality are the magic cop out, for a deity failing to get the respect of everyone. The proper & moral thing to do; dismiss & rebuke the believer, those suggest we all travel better with one foot in fantasyland: grant them ownership, of the vocabulary, of the narrative; according to their whimsical interpretations. Tell me, what is good about indoctrination of children, with a fantasyland & its vocabulary? Can you really expect everyone to pretend your God made Mormons so Christians would feel like Jews? "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is everyone that hangeth on a tree:" Galatians 3:13 What truth is found in fiction depends on the reader. Let those with ears to hear, My sheep hear My voice. Pretending, is not truth, or knowing good & evil, & clearly not a trait we want in leadership. Interpretation of fiction might say; Moses is the world's worst navigator & leader, having God & Faith in his vocabulary. Jesus Christ says 'Faith is worthless since you can't expect mountains to move in obedience to your orders.' The magic performed by Jesus is all a joke, since the sign of Jonah is the only one given. Believers are a wicked generation gathering around notions of signs like a resurrection. Jonah was a believer, who offered his life, as a sacrifice? by those who outnumbered him in belief, in magic. The lesson is about how bad faith is.
