Religion is just a way to try to legitimize hate these days. When you have an indefensible opinion you don’t want to change, say it’s your religion and find an obscure passage to support it. It’s the refuge of the deplorable more than its proclaimed peace and love.
I didn’t say hate didn’t exist outside religion. That would be your cognitive leap. I said religion is used to attempt to legitimize hate as belief so it can be protected from scrutiny on some levels.
Sigh… fucking religious zealots.

Yep, countries like China have plenty of hate and they’re not religious. Take away religion and the hate is still there.

Good people do good things. Bad people do bad things. But for good people to do bad things takes religion. Or something along those lines

Maybe someone should pass a “kill-the-zealots” bill for once.
