    Christians call it “testifying” because it sounds better than “lying.” But words actually mean things. And properly speaking one can only “testify” about what is in one’s personal, first hand, knowledge, which never includes stories about life after death and rarely includes those about supposed events, miraculous or mundane, thousands of years ago. Conflating storytelling with testimony is just lying about testifying, and probably lying about the contents of those stories as well.

    If one says “I believe that virtue in this life will be rewarded in another, in these particular ways” then one is simply testifying about the *beliefs* that motivate ones actions

    But if one says, as if it is a matter of fact, “Virtue in this life is rewarded in another, and in these particular ways” then one is simply conflating theory with fact.

    There is no problem with ADOPTING a theory and using it, with or without evidence, as long as the facts available do not contradict it (and sometimes even if they do.) But passing it off as fact, when it is not fact, is to make more of it than one honestly may.

    —“Linguists date the split of Proto-Indo-European dialects into what would become Germanic and Slavic languages to just before 3000 BC, which is incidentally around the same date geneticists point to as the calculated split of the paternal haplogroup R1a1a (R-M417) into specific Germanic and Slavic subclades. The R1a1a lineage is associated with human remains of the Corded Ware culture, a highly interconnected archaeological horizon where some of the oldest remains of genetically modern North Europeans are found, emerging as mounted warriors from the steppe conquered the North European plain.”— Aryandom
