The non-evolution of Mark

...But then I realized it wasn't about your God at all; you were lying to protect your fragile little ego. To maintain the image of the knight in shining armor you had imposed on yourself, to deal with your inferiority complex towards those that are more educated and, well, more [intelligent] than you (or do you think it's not clear to all what things like, say, your mocking declaration of other people's titles and credentials, show?)

Nowdays, whenever I see you lie (and get caught lying, and lie to cover that up, and then lose track of your lies) I just laugh and laugh.
