Lets face it, there are millions of highly educated, intelligent Christians out there. So my question is, what exactly is taking place in otherwise logical, reasonable peoples heads to make them abandon rational thought, and participate in an outrageous delusion?
If I say Jesus was resurrected and floated up into heaven, a Christian agrees, but if I say a reindeer floats, I'm nuts.
If I say Jesus walked on water, that is reasonable, but if Chris Angel does it, it's a magic trick.
If you ask a Christian if prayers make a difference, they'll say, "certainly", but you don't see them speed through intersections, "praying" the lights will turn green.
If Christian gets sick, they'll take antibiotics that were created in a lab via science based on evolution, but if you show them the skull of an Australopithecus, they'll deny that's evidence of evolution.
Obviously they are capable of distinguishing reality from fantasy, WHEN THEY CHOOSE TO. What is this magical spell they're under?!?
