This guy represents exactly what I believe he sums it up perfectly

religion = population control

rational thinker, except for the fact he still believes in something without evidence. If only he would go a little bit further, to not only question religion, but god itself.

I find that since I read the book 'Love Wins' by Rob Bell, and started to listen to John Spong, my worldview has been so severely altered, I feel like a different person. My outlook used to be so narrow, so oriented within boundaries, I find now it is all-encompassing, progressive, loving, and accepting.

@DeGuerre Right and wrong was never anything else. Only to the narrow-minded, bigoted, self-righteous, holier-than-thou literalists right and wrong means: Do as I say and not as I do.
I prefer Spong's way. He's honest.

@TomFynn To the liberal religious like Spong, "right" and "wrong" is a shorthand for "good for you" and "bad for you" respectively. All philosophy is made up, but some is better for you than others.
