Bringing complaints of “heresy” into it appears to simply be an attempt to dictate what theological knowlege is allowed, and by extension what empirical evidence may or may not be admitted.

Spirited: Fyodor Dostoevsky said that with the death of Jehovah, the God of Revelation, all things will be possible.

Men will turn to the creation of their own gods as they’ve done from antiquity, and speaking through their gods will demand the rejection, persecution and burial of anyone who blasphemes against them (their gods) with unbearably hateful words such as heresy.

Truly, "heresy" is a hateful word but I think "anathema" is even worse. But neither of them have any bearing on those who never shared the accuser's core belief in the first place.

So unless the words were addressed to me by a brother or sister in Christ, they would be empty. And if a brother or sister in Christ used such words towards me they would no doubt discover there is more poison in the handle than in the point.
