That’s a crazy leap to make from my statement which was that killing off black churches would not make the world better. That is the key counter factual for those who claim religion has no benefit to society, or even stronger claims that it retards our moral progress. I think the evidence is clear if you’re honest about the data. Faith helps people with life’s difficulties. I’m certainly not saying any one group needs faith more than any other group. No Christian person will ever make such a claim which is antithetical to the core premise of Christianity, universal brotherhood.

Ah yes, no true Christian.

A visit to the American South will disabuse you of that notion.
