They are all so excellent this week. I finally had to go with Marcus Aurelius because that was the first argument that I ever used to explain why I felt that I should have no worries about renouncing God.

Telling kids that they are going to Hell if they are not good is also so wrong that I would have chosen that one if not for the Aurelius quote.
