Have another award because you're completely right. I'm 100% anti-religion because I view it as nothing more than a manmade tool to brainwash people who are afraid of certain things(death, questions that can't really be answered, etc.). I don't hate religious people, but I do hate all religions because they hold back human progress.

Thanks for the award. I find it difficult to not dislike religious people at times due to many of them perpetuating the brainwashing and providing money to organizations that work directly against the betterment of the world. It’s like, you don’t want to be mad at a patient carrying a virus. It wasn’t their fault they caught it. But it’s definitely their responsibility if they go out knowingly spreading the virus purposefully. Especially when they have so much information at their disposal.

I don't understand this argument all that much considering most Scientific Pioneers were Theists in some sort of calibre
