I wasn't angling for any religious position. I just think it's unfair to take somebody's comment out of context, slap a zinger on it, and then make a social media post about how you got'em.

At best it's lazy, at worst it's misleading. it encourages sophistry.

    As a kid, I had many legitimate questions about religion (my mother was very christian), and all of them got smothered with a simple "you're too young, you wouldn't understand / it's too complex / you're missing context". Turns out, she was simply wrong about a shitload, and didn't want to admit it.
