Filial Misanthropy? In another instance of agreement with Richard Dawkins, Dan Barker wrote: “According to Jesus, how should Christian disciples treat their parents?…Parents should be hated. -More family values from the ‘Good Book.’ ‘If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea,…
