Of course that's the way we were brought up. Not only did you have to believe in God, but in a very specific tripartite unitary God. Otherwise you were a heretic, if you never believed, or an apostate, if you had and now didnt.
All very neatly tied up.
I'm reading Seán Fagan at the moment. A man after my own heart. His writing shows that God, if there is a God, must have a sense of humour. If that is so He is probably breaking his sides laughing at the other fellow.
Try Matthew 6:3. Attacking the messenger is no substitute for responding to the message. Do you seriously suggest that a preacher should be disciplined for stating a biblical truth?
He is clearly a bigger fool if he believes that.
