Religion is a choice

People can't choose their skin colour, their sexuality etc.

Bigotry is hating someone for an intrinsic part of who they are

Religion is fair game as far as I'm concerned

I don't care about someone's religion, until they make it my problem

They're free to have their stupid beliefs. I'm not going to respect them, but if they leave me alone, I will return the courtesy

As soon as they want to force me to abide by their backwards superstition, to pass laws in its name, to shit on others using their fairytales as justification, then I have a fucking problem.

    People make that choice because it makes them feel special.

    I don't need to be a member of a bronze-age book club to enjoy my life

    Sadly, a lot of people are indoctrinated into religion as a child.

    I agree

    It's abuse

    Without indoctrination before a child is able to think, religion would disappear in a generation
