I can do better than that: I can do that with any group, not just a church congregation!
- donatj 6y agoI was about to make this comment exact comment. It is OP who is delusional about the world around him.
- legolas2412 6y agoNot OP but a fellow atheist. Let me provide my opinion. You'll find racists and bigots in any group, but religions explicitly promote the supremacy and truth value of one over the other, and is a source of racism and bigotry. Unlike say, a board game club.
- felipelemos 6y agoAre you sure you are not talking about the current US government?
- legolas2412 6y agoWhy is it when you criticize religion then all religious apologists come along? It's even bi-partisan. Criticize Christianity and right wingers come with whataboutism and criticise Islam and left wingers are angry. If I criticize Nazi white supremacy philosophy of formenting hatred, do you come with a similar excuse of how human tribal nature will find a different means for formenting conflict, or how the British empire was also racist. Is my point of criticizing religion in any way related to your snark about the Trump administration?
- henriquemaia 6y agoDelusional? On the contrary. If you're right (and I believe you are) that the whole world is fucked up, filled with all sort of crazy and misguided people, why not treat churches like any other worldly institution, taxing them?
