188. Admit it
you just can't deal with an atheist that doesn't fit the mold that you've figured they all come from. I don't presume all religious people to be identical thinkers, why should anyone presume that all atheists believe exactly the same things?


When kings, legislatures, and even direct votes of the people have expanded the definition of which living beings with the 46 human chromosomes are persons, they've tended to be right, when they've restricted that definition, they've tended to be wrong. My beliefs are in line with that logic.


The best way to deny someone's personhood is to label them subhuman. It's happened throughout history, and it happens today.
