    Matthew 6

    • 5 And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites; for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, so that they may be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward.
    • 6 But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

      One of my favorite verses. Preachers will do all kinds of contortionist shit to wriggle out of this one. Usually they don’t have to though, because their followers only read the parts of the book the preacher cherrypicks.

      There’s an old concept I like- The best cure for christianity is reading the bible.
