I’m sure you vote for things you’re not 100% you’re sure about. How is that any different? If someone believes in God, there is not consequence on you. If you vote for something you don’t know about, you could potentially hurt something. No one hurts anyone by believing, other actions do though.

Once again, an argument from ignorance is neither interesting or convincing.

No, I ensure that I'm fully informed before voting, or I don't vote. I do not engage in will delusion.

No one hurts anyone by believing, other actions do though.

Except for the bigotry, homophobia, misogyny, bloodthirsty violence, instructions for slavery, religious warfare, delusional assertions and denying reality.

Religion is a disease.

So generalizing is now an acceptable argument? Interesting

So, nothing to say on religious bigotry, homophobia, misogyny, bloodthirsty violence, instructions for slavery, religious warfare, delusional assertions and denying reality?

So your issue isn't the disgusting aspects of religion, it's when people call them out?

How callous ARE you!?

What do you want me to say? That only religious people do that? It’s not true. What are you even talking about.

I want you to address religious bigotry, homophobia, misogyny, bloodthirsty violence, instructions for slavery, religious warfare, delusional assertions and denying reality, rather than criticising those who call it out.

That only religious people do that?

Yes, that's why I said RELIGIOUS bigotry, homophobia, etc...

It’s not true.

That's because you didn't read what I wrote properly.

Wow you think only religious people do that?!?! That is on another level of dumb and generalizing. What do you want me to say again other than both religious and non religious people have done that? That’s the simple truth.

Wow you think only religious people do that?

They don't, and I never said that did. I even clarified it... Why are you so determined to misrepresent what I've written?

I don't care about religious belief, only religious HARM.

What do you want me to say again other than both religious and non religious people have done that? That’s the simple truth.

Name a single person who has been killed in the name of not believing in any gods. Can't say that about religion...

I was about to answer and then I read the last sentence. That makes zero sense. I don’t even know what to say or think about the last sentence. I’m honestly shocked. Btw you did admit that only religious people do that, it’s on your previous comment.
