Is the poster a demon, a god, a bot, a human, or speaking on behalf of one? Of course I know the poster's intent, but the point is obviously controversial, so I was just calling it out. Plenty of religious people on HN with as much or more evidence to believe what they believe as the op has for their beliefs, but who don't feel the need to antagonize.
- hprotagonist 7y agoI quoted predominantly christian admonitions about not being this kind of a jerk because that's the group discussed in the article. You can pick hadiths, talmudic excerpts, etc. from texts of more or less any major religion if you'd prefer to drive home the same point when the audience changes. If you think athiests are somehow exempt from constructing "religions and traditions and laws and customs and rituals in order to live", I think you're sorely mistaken. That behavior is as foundationally human as bipedalism and tool use.
