Jubal Hershaw plays the part of Heinlein's mouthpiece, does he not? Wait till he gets to his little chestnut about rape, I bet you'll like that one.
If you haven't heard Hershaw's take on religion I must suspect you haven't been reading much Hitchens or Dawkins lately. The Christian response to such reasoning is to denounce you as a relativist. I far prefer the more inflammatory tactic of accusing a christian of being an atheist just as much as I am an an atheist, after all, I only disbelieve in one more god than them out of a pantheon of hundreds of thousands known to have been worshiped, or which are currently worshiped.
