    In 2015, I disliked Christianity, but harbored no desire to see it eliminated from society entirely. “An’ harm ye none…”

    Now, in 2025, I’m convinced that democracy can only survive in the long run if Christianity, as a social force, dies entirely.

      All religion is partially to blame for the stupidity of our species.

      Christianity is directly responsible for the fascism in America.

      It’s inextricably linked.

      If this offends you, go pray or something.

      The fundamental flaw are the religions that have it baked into them that one of their core tenets is that they have to convert other people to their beliefs, by any means necessary. Otherwise, they have failed at their own religion. It’s almost like an MLM scheme.

        Uh oh, “removed”… Did you say something about that other religion? Mods on this site seem to have a real soft spot for that other religion…

          I said it was badass when it was first used, was talking about George Washington and stuff from the one article that was posted. Hate what it means now.
