137. win for the bigotry!
Edited on Sat Aug-13-11 08:11 AM by AlbertCat
What bigotry?

Pointing out the absurd is not bigotry. Neither is pointing out the abuses of the absurd.


The religious just LOVE to feel persecuted. Christians and Muslims especially. I always chuckle when we get one of those "Christianity is under attack!" memes when there's a church on every other corner of every city in the USA... tax free with Gov. subsidies... and billboards everywhere.... and TV shows and stations.... and even SciFi movies where the aliens are really angels.... and children's books that are Christian analogies (but don't write a book about wizards!).... or are appalled that we teach what science shows us in school (because it's the foundation of biology) and.... and.... and....

The bigotry of atheists pales in comparison to all the bigotry and harm of religions.

The worst for me are all those religionists who poo-poo science while thoroughly (and mindlessly) enjoying the benefits of science.
