I admire Dawkins, Hitchens and co. in some respects...and am repelled by them in others. I see dickheads in all walks of life, but religion has a certain ability to let groups of dickheads gravitate towards each other and combine like a...a...Dickazord.
I forgot where I was going with this.
Oh yeah.
I don't want religion to be eradicated. I want it regulated and structures put in place in society that keeps check of those who think that not only are they 100% right, they are sanctioned by the supreme ruler of the universe. I want to live in a society that does not force religion of any kind of any person, where the most devoutly religious person can break bread with the most stern of atheists.
I do not take pleasure when Muslims are killed in stampedes at their holy sites, or when Christians are killed for their beliefs in the Middle East. I do not hate the religious - but by God, I hate religion.
