| 23. Well, that's the other issue currently that's causing me agita |
|
And I think there's a link, as you show... simplistic, one-sided, black and white thinking. "Religion is bad" "Israel is bad" Therefore, Hamas must be a bunch of freedom fighters and we should all fall in line and support whatever they do to fight the big bad Israelis... Stupid. Just stupid. Same with religion - it's just evil, and the cause of all evil on the planet, and those superstitious idiots who claim a belief are just holding mankind back from truly evolving into the great thinking atheists we all should be.
