I think it's silly. If it was "risen up by GOD", then it wouldn't be continually fragmenting and splintering into quarelling factions. I could say something equally bigoted, considering Jewish history, but you see the point.

When truth is what matters, people squabble and fracture. When unity is what matters, everybody stays in one big organization no matter how far apart its members are in what they believe.

I have never understood what is allegedly so great about prizing unity above truth.

***I have never understood what is allegedly so great about prizing unity above truth.***

There are millions of differing ‘truths’ out there - one per Protestant. The Holy Spirit is God - we see no evidence of a latter day Tower of Babel - and has one Truth for all mankind.
