god is a quaint metaphor. you were with me until then, so it didn’t actually detract from any point i made. i was trying to draw attention to and defeat the concept of ‘empathy is a sin’ by explicitly countering it on its own terms. i can empathize with the christian perspective, but i do not sympathize with it.
I liked your post right up until the end… God’s work?? Really?
