      I remember some kid in elementary school once said to me “I’m not racist because I hate all races equally!”

      He thought he was super clever to come up with that.

      This is brain dead thinking that ignores attorcities committed by both secular and atheistic regimes such as:

      Stalin and USSR Maoist China Colonial states (France as one example)

        And it’s all bad. But I was raised in the Evangelical Church. I read the bibble cover to cover 4 times before I was 15. Was on track to become a preacher. It was the hypocrisy of the church and the people in it that made me into the merrily militant atheist I am today.

        Go argue 20th century geopolitical body counts with some poli-sci major. We’re shitting on organized religion right now.
