OP, it does not matter who said these sentiments. It does not even matter about whether the utterer is himself possibly a Christian, a fictitious person, or otherwise. I gather that this is supposed to have been something Tolstoy thought, and again if so, it does sound rather un-Christian. But that is wholly apart from the point.
Here is the point.
These sentiments, whose-ever they are, even if they are meant to an ironic or a troll-ish extent, these sentiments...
These basic sentiments are TRUE. They both actually rhetorically work, and feel good. They are generally correct. They are richly deserving of intellectual and emotional defense, on multiple levels. In a word, they are right.
These sentiments represent a true and correct indictment of the falsity and evil of Christian mystery itself, and even if it happens that Tolstoy was the utterer (as I expect), making these points in the service of some broader mysticism, or other point, then it bears mentioning that the text of the OP itself, divorced from all other context, is right as I've insisted. It is an altogether wholly proper expression of a really moral sense, which amounts to the simple fact that any god as absurd and arbitrary and stupid as the versions of the Abrahamic god who allows that certain people are damned infinitely for various finite fuckups, is thus consequently a god who is wholly undeserving of worship and veneration, and who is deserving of rejection, and this paradoxically (in the face of his presumptive terrible and evil and infinite power), /exactly because he cannot really be resisted in any meaningful way./ Such a child-evil-tyrant-aspergers-retard god, as may be suspected to exist by dint of the awful world that we live in (the concept is an unpleasant and real thought experiment revisited daily by serious thinkers), together with our present historical tradition, is entertained at some regularlity.
Here is the really moral obgligation. Followers of Abrahamic religion should stop repairing to their respective religious traditions, and instead abandon them again in favor of free inquiry The horrors of 20th century socialism in their connection with atheism do not comprise an intellecual excuse to stick with religion, this is false form of reaction. Nor am I even disposed to stick up for modern leftism-as-such, and on this, I have a final point.
Humans are impelled toward the truth, at some level, even if that impulse is unpleasant to the point of being destructive. My concern is to suggest a godless truth while at the same time securing some hedonic security for humans, so that humans don't commit suicide en masse over an idea, or the absence of an idea. the human survival instinct seems to check this worry pretty well, but I am thinking of a longer view somehwat on this.
