Sometimes I lie in bed at night trying to work out why the Greeks were so clever. Yes, I know, I need to get out more. But, basically, these guys had already realised one of the fundamental problems with religion: if there is all sorts of religions in the world they can’t all be right. Even today, billions of people around the world can’t seem to deal with this blatant contradiction. This leaves them with two possibilities: either God presents himself in different ways to different cultures, which means that God’s cool with human sacrifice and cannibalism… or you just have ‘faith’ that your God is the one true God. The quotation marks there might give you some idea of what I think of that.
