Quote of the Day

We have Jesus and his Enlightenment prophets to thank for the humanist ideas on which America was founded.  If you're one of the people Jesus is said to have favored -- a child, a woman, someone ill, a sex worker, someone regarded as untouchable, old, ugly, abandoned or "the other" in some way -- and you are being cared for by unbelievers, is Jesus' example being followed?  Or does Jesus only live in correct theology regardless of how little a Christian may care about your wellbeing?

-- Frank Schaeffer, Why I Am an Atheist Who Believes in God, p. 65-66
