About This Quote

Charles Darwin noticed that people who are true believers are often the same people who are willing to kill for their beliefs. People believe in things that are unrealistically harsh, cruel or evil for the sake of being sure that they’re right. These individuals are willing to die for their beliefs because they believe that these beliefs will bring them closer to God. This is one way to show honor to God.

People who are true believers have a lot to prove to themselves that they have what it takes to hold on to their beliefs. When you’re not willing to kill for your beliefs, it means you don’t truly believe in them.
