I mean, such bravery in sticking to their guns regardless of evidence, all so they don't risk getting coal for xmas.
That is what we're talking about, right?
To follow the instincts of self preservation and simply await death in comfort is even worse, no matter how you look at it. Evidence is just a probability, atheists like to present it as a fact.
Yeah, it has to be one or the other with you people, huh?

The violent ones are the brave ones OP. At least -they- have a credible fear of reprisal for the actions they take under firm conviction of faith.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

No?
Any idiot can be violent. Take the cowards who storm schools with AKs and butcher teens. What about suicide bombing? I call it "the easy way out"; a coward skips years of studying and weeks of mental trauma cause by the acts of Kaffirs, just to blow themselves up and sleep forever; leaving us behind to rot instead of bleeding to fix.
That's the coward? a brave on stays; fight the battle until it ends; bleed slowly as the years pass, watch his fingers break and his mind go soft as the years pass, just to prove a point.
God bless.

If any idiot could do it most idiots would, and believers have a hell of alot of idiots to spare. Just grab your sack and realize that it takes courage to do a terrible thing in service of your convictions. Call them wrong, call them idiots, call them misguided...they're probably all of those things and so are you. .....?

Peaceful believers do -none- of that. Why would they? Their "point"..in their minds, is already "proven"...and they don;t have to give up a thing to keep doing and believing what they do and believe.
