Thiests: This how atheists see religion

RE: Thiests: This how atheists see religion
I despise the "Us vs. Them" mentality that religion creates, so why would I want to fuel it by subscribing to the beliefs in the OP?

If those same folks show up and do not to condemn your OP it will reveal them to be total hypocrites.

It is, but apparently even atheists forget that from time to time.

I just feel sorry for them. I do not see them as an enemy, but rather someone who are clouded and stubborn.

I don't see religion and religious people as enemies. This doesn't mean I approve of everything that is done in the name of religion but not every religious person approves of these negative aspects either.
