The Abrahamic and other religions are mostly

based on myth.

Some believe in a transcendent "God", not an immanent one.

The issue is when those who believe in one type of God consider it their mission to convert the rest of us.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
