What topics surrounding religion get you riled up?

RE: What topics surrounding religion get you riled up?
Religiously motivated violence, child abuse, or neglect. Something that can cause a parent to betray their child can't be a wholly good thing.

Also any time you see a video about "10 things that destroy atheism", or something like that, half of them will be easily refuted, and the other half is likely to be too vague to be useful.

There are some wise things from Jesus that a lot of Christians ignore. Keep your belief private, and don't shout it in the streets like a hypocrite. Judge not, lest ye be judged. There's a live and let live message in there, as well as helping out people in need. A lot of the things people use to justify hate and violence is in the old testament, yet they want to call themselves Christians, and not jews. There's a lot of hate in the bible, for having a god who is supposed to be mostly about love and mercy.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
