Which faith is truer - a feigned obedient "faith" which is the product of dogmatic coercion under threat of religionist's temporal punishment - OR - a faith that is the work-product of logic, reason, and self-evident truth - derived inquisitively by FREE MINDS, created in God's own image, via direct interaction with creation and its Creator?

Your ability to cut and paste from the writings of Thomas Jefferson have NOTHING to do with your desire to implement eugenics (aka "reproductive fitness").

IOW, who's faith is more valid - a subject who pretends to have faith to avoid being punished by his owner/King; or faith of citizens who are FREE to have it... or not?

We gots no "church" of England here.   Deal wif it.
