91. Well, why don't we count up all the ways that religion has ruined the world, shall we? |
|
Crusades
Inquisition
Burning of witches
Almost all wars
Violence against gays and lesbians
Denouncing and demonizing science
Denouncing demonizing medical advances
Assassination of abortion providers
And so on, and so on, and so on.
Seems that 'simmering animosity' is a quite mild reaction against this kind of institutionalized brutality.
Maybe you should 'admit even to yourself' that your knee-jerk defense of Christianity needs some examining.
Buh-bye.
