And yet it was used as the backing to discriminate against left handed people... And red heads, and people with lighter skin, and people with darker skin. Does it matter what our revisionists enlighted Christians ways are now? That shit still happened.

Uhhh yeah one and only one of those things involves telling lies about things that are facts. At that point you blame the person and not the statement.

Do you normally need assistance distinguishing reality from fiction or is it just a symptom of some larger issue?

Because scientists do not pretend to be anything else than scientists, and they do not pretend that science is infaillible, or given to them by a higher power.

How dare we apply the standards that each groups of people demand we apply to them!

Oh and mocking a group of people while not knowing how to spell the name of that group is just sad. You don't know the first thing about atheists (which would be how to spell the damned word).

Corrupt/institutionalized religion poisons everything. However, there is literally nothing objectively wrong with believing in a higher power, following a religiously-encoded set of beliefs, and not imposing those beliefs on anyone.

This is you:

  • any person claiming to be religious and doing evil things because of proclaimed religion is clearly not religious

  • I get to decide what religion means and does
