6. If only people practiced the faith they claimed to believe...
then there wouldn't be any conflict with reason. I can't think of a time when Jesus conflicted with common sense and reason, yet the modern day fundies can't reconcile the two. What does that say about their faith in relation to its founder?

"I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense, reason, and intellect has intended us to forego their use." Galileo Galilei
