Going about my daily grind, I fell to talking with a nice middle-class Christian lady. I asked her why Christians believe that Jesus advocated marriage when there is nothing in the Gospels to support that. She adamantly claimed that was not true, but failed to provide any evidence.
Why is the religious mind at least one step away from actuality? Why do so many support a religion or cult that they know little about, investing it with their own prejudices? They, like Christian fundamentalists and too many Moslems, take literally what is written and then/or make up swathes of material.
