I don't think that's true. There have certainly been more religious people than communists throughout the ages. Billions more.

And if evil people can use religion as an excuse, couldn't they also use communism (or whatever) as an excuse? By your logic, it wouldn't be communism's fault.

There have also been many people throughout history who have done good in the name of religion. I think any rational analysis of Christianity would find that it is on the whole a good thing.

Yes to the first part, strongly disagree with the second.

"On the whole," I think Christianity has done more harm than good. Too much bloodshed and abuse and hysteria. I think there are better alternatives.

I think there has been a lot of slander pushed against christians by leftists because Christianity has stood in the way of thier degeneracy, and also by jews who historically hate Christianity but also because want to push society in a radically leftist agenda. I think you fell for that.

You could then argue that there is a lot of slander toward atheists by Christians and Muslims. Did you know atheism is considered religious extremism in Dubai, some have been sentenced to death there. The late Christopher Hitchens did well to dismantle much of the dogmatic bullshit surrounding the purity of religion, all religion. Good deeds are done by individuals who happen to be religious, and they may even do it in the name of religion, but the religious organisations and establishments have known history of evil deeds. It's even written down in the religious texts. Sodomy, murder, rape, slavery, genocide, etc. It's all there. The left are ideologically corrupt just as the church is.

Yes, there certainly is.

I did not, but am not surprised. I am opposed to all religious extremism and that includes hard core rhetoric like that.

The left are ideologically corrupt just as the church is.

The solution should be separation of church and state.

At the very least there should be separation of church from the state, I'd go further and relinquish any special rights religion has that overrides any right the non-religious have, and any right of those who are not of consenting age. Nobody has the right to force religion on young people, ideologically or physically.

My parents were Christian fundamentalists, and they were horribly abusive because of that. My aversion to Christianity stems from personal experience, not politics. I'm certain my childhood would've been a lot more enjoyable if my parents hadn't been Christians.

Or they would have found another excuse to be abusive.

Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that the Bible's got a lot of psychotic nonsense in it. If you take it literally, like fundamentalists do, you're not gonna have a good time. And neither is anyone around you.
