Tragically, some people believe they are going to heaven when they die just because a few drops of water were sprinkled over their heads a few weeks after their birth. They have no personal faith, have never made a personal decision, and are banking on a hollow ceremony to save them. How absurd.

Major catastrophes like cheating on your wife and leaving your family, could no longer happen, would no longer happen. But, of course, they did, and they do.
