Do you agree with this argument?

"You separate religion from your policies, contradicting the pure nature which affirms Absolute Authority to the Lord and your Creator. You flee from the embarrassing question posed to you: How is it possible for God the Almighty to create His creation, grant them power over all the creatures and land, grant them all the amenities of life, and then deny them that which they are most in need of: knowledge of the laws which govern their lives?"

Update:

@No Gods; Yes he was!

Update 2:

@This is Me; are you talking about how the dude that said that got shot in the face, and dumped in the ocean?

Update 3:

@Don't Call Me Dude; Nah dude, it was a different guy totally.

Update 4:

@Deaner, as many times as it takes for people to get it figured out

    What's his face.

    The paper nailed on the church door guy?

    If it!s him and it's the argument that people should be allowed to read their own Bible and not have it interpreted by the church, then to the extent that it's pro knowledge I would have to agree with it.

    But can't you find something more factual to want to read by yourself?

    1) There is no such thing as "pure nature." You made up the concept.

    2) There is no such thing as "absolute authority." Yet another fiction.

    3) There is such thing as a creator, yet another fiction.

    4) Since you made up "god the almighty," you can be the author of any fictional power this god has.

    That's must be a Pat Robertson quote form the 700 Club.

    No I don't agree. It sounds like a real religious lunatic.

    God said I must stone my children to death if they curse at me. Should I do that because if it is Gods will then I will do so. Is that what you are telling me. There is a reason that church and state are separate.

    the argument assumes its own conclusion.

    believe what you want :

    Laws and morality are HUMAN cultural constructions so we can live as a group
