And a snaky insult at believers.
Free to believe what you wish, no one disputes that, however, a rational expression of your stance is best received when stated logically, dispassionately and with respect.
I find it interesting how the foundation of some religions have no physical proof. From the golden plates of scripture of one to the body of another, they are all gone. Gee. How convenient.
I believe in God. I also believe that his being will never be proven to us until we die. We have a continuing test of our character as we live; we will then be judged for all we did and all we should have done. I do not believe in forgiveness; we will pay for all our sins.
So we have a question. Why are some people so focused on a shroud? If you already believe in God, you don’t need a shroud, especially one that’s history is highly questionable, totally open to speculation and subject to financial dealings. I don’t need any validation of my beliefs, which are the result of long study and prayer.
Have a wonderful day!
