I JUST ‘SCIENCE’ CHRISTIANITY
—“The Bible is used to swear people to tell the truth. This assumes RESPECT. It is sad to observe the Bible’s value approaching that of the phone book. I say this as a person raised without religion. My experience leads me to believe it is purely and necessarily social control.”— Nina
Christianity consists of (a) a threat (hell) and promise (heaven), (b) a pledge to do no harm, (c) a pledge to exhaust one’s forgiveness, (d) a pledge to exhaust one’s charity.
Together they constitute a pledge to survive by via-negativa merit.
Swearing on the bible confirms those pledges.
This understanding is metaphysical.
I ‘science’ it.
