Oh, sadly I suspect that they are all real. 🙁

Why sadly?

If I have to explain why that's sad, then I'm afraid the world is beyond hope.

Reason as the enemy? That doesn't disturb you a bit?

That's... not what I asked. You don't need to explain why the idea that "reason is the enemy" is sad in general. I'm asking why do you find it sad in this particular case where a church sigh says that "reason is the enemy of faith". In context of organized religion most people would find it hillarious (because it's true and it's weird that they admit it). Hence the question.

Uh, yeah. It's dark humor.

But it's still depressing.

Still not sure what you're getting at.

I dont like churches.
Not the concept, the actual buildings.
I dont like walking in the front door and winding up in the back of the room. 🤨

It pretty much means that in order to remain religious you have to give up reason. I just don't see how it's dark, the fact that churches admit it is just funny to me. But nvrmnd.

^^^i'm more with your line of thought on this, depending on the extreme the church takes it to.
Self depreciating humor i'm okay with.

Yeah, I get it. It is funny. I guess because I live in the Southern US it's sort of depressing because I see the reality of it on a daily basis. In other words it would be funnier if it wasn't so commonly practiced.

I have something I took a picture of in my hometown. It's too big to upload from my phone, but I'll try to post it sometime shortly.

Sweet, the personal touch! 😱
