What does that mean and how is that related to the current argument?

I'm not arguing with you. Christendom is not "The Way." Yeshua's way is not preached in Christianity and few Christians follow it. "The Way" is action ie. to do good; not to go to Church every Sunday and let hell reign on earth is not what Yeshua had in mind.

not to go to Church every Sunday

Going to church every Sunday should not be mandatory, and in no way is 'not going to church every Sunday' equivalent to 'let hell reign on earth'

Followers of Yeshua must bring the Kingdom to those on earth and preach it far and wide. It isn't just about salvation. We must leave the dead to bury their dead.

I do not have a problem with Christians spreading their teachings, however, a goverment choosing a specific religion to support is not a comprehensible idea. The state should remain secular (while maintaining family values, but also rejecting puritanism)

how special of you, to believe that shit.

Religion is a fundamental aspect of Human, which is why this fairytale state of yours has never, and will never thrive.

If it isn't god, it will be some kind of animism, or molecular faith.

Religion isn't necessary, belief is. Nihilism is still a belief, a belief in nothing. Nihilism rejects religion

You are arguing against known neurophysiological systems.

We are literally wired to believe in God.

You were aware of that?

I could take a transcranial magnetic simulator and zapa little spot in your frontal lobe and you'd have a religious experience, like it or not

So avoiding animal instincts is bad in your opinion?

that's a leap, and also a derail and ALSO a complete avoidance. nice work
