I'm not ignorant. I just think specifically attacking someone for their religion is shitty. There are way better ways to combat abuses of power than laying it all at the feet of every single person of a certain faith. That is being an asshole in my book.
I think physically attacking someone because of your religion or them not buying into your religion is worse. Religions took the whole "sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me" ass backwards.
We are watching a native group of people being cleansed from the earth because of a book. If I murdered 40,000 people because of Santa Clause, I would be the most wanted criminal. However, we praise them and say it is " God's will."
Fuck you and the imaginary shit you believe. Butt hurt because they pointed out a very accurate fact. Even the Abrahamic religious have a story about how everyone cooperating was against "God" in the tale of the Tower of Babel.
There is just nothing liberatory about wanting to get rid of people's cultural practices. Focus your anger on the politicians and bad actors who coopt those practices.
Considering religion gets rid of people's cultural practices more than anything else, I figured you would be mad at that. Multiple cultural practices and their religions have been wiped out by the spread of Christianity and Islam. Don't worry those two are not the only ones. All religion is convert or else. The or else may change but has the same results.
So you think atheism is convert or else? Because that's where you're landing here, and being pretty loose with facts on the way. You're kinda just ....doing the exact things that the worst zealous religious folks do, don't you think? It's silly.
Yeah i was "converted" lol. All I had to do is study and read about religion. Wasn't hard.
Which facts? I need bullet points and citations. "Trust me bro" won't work.
Let me know when calling out religious folks or not be religious leads to massive child rape, slavery, murder, child/ women kidnappings, massive poverty, and destruction of a planet. I'll wait. Or I can point out all the religious examples from any of your books.
Street preacher behavior.
I think, you thought that was something but , it was a pointless statement. Also street preachers just show why religion is radical. " Let me sit outside an scream about an imaginary person and how you must follow me."
