Religious people are stupid. Jews and Muslims take their religion very
seriously, so they're seriously stupid. It's a pity the Nazis didn't
win.

Wouldn't help. Nazis were religious too.

But not quite as much so. Anyway, who cares as long as religious folk
end up dead.

I'd rather have them cured.

Why do people treat Jews like some kind of protected species? Negros
are born black, they can't help it. But Jews choose to worship pretend
beings.

Many Christians are pushier.

No they aren't.

Maybe you haven't yet encounteded many of the pushy Christians. That's a
good thing. Not everyone is that lucky.

Also, it's an infection not a choice. Religion is imposed on people
through contact with those around them when they're young (this is often
the parents).

Everyone has a choice.

I was raised without imposed religion, supposedly so I would have a
choice. The effect of that is that I DON'T have a choice. Why should
anyone with a choice choose mind-numbing bull****?

I know plenty folk with very religious parents
and kids who realise their parents are ****ing idiots, so the kids
become atheists.

Some people do manage to recover (and most then become immune).

They're off their head and should be treated as such.

Not too much if they keep that stuff to themselves.

Keeping stupidity to yourself doesn't stop you being stupid.


No, but it DOES stop you from making other people stupid (the
Christianity virus, like other viruses "wants" to reproduce).

Recently I met someone (name withheld out of respect) who was a very
good example of a victim of religion, who seems to have become
voluntarily stupid.
