Long and tortuous journey just to justify his own atheism…without a hint of self-awareness or shame.
Comparing the dark, hidden motives of social culture (and by extension the black hole that is gov) with the brilliant light of virtue that is God, serves only to secure his own place among the former.
It is the classic error of dismissive elitism to confuse “belief” which is the personal embrace of Divine creation and guidance, with “religion” which is really just another systemic social culture with its own set of ulterior motives.
What is ironic and counterintuitive is that the more intelligent and enlightened we become, the more blind to and ignorant of this simple truth we sometimes are.
I like Aaron’s way of cutting through the BS of PC and SC, but sometimes as in this case, he is naively close to becoming that which he derides and despises himself.
