Even if theism is a failure, it's still superior to atheism

[LinuxGal]

Mister Agenda: i understand.  Christ didnt say to hate our families, though: he said to love him more than our families.  if we put our family above all things,  we fall into sin quickly because that's rooted in bias and favoritism, which isnt the truth: everyone should be treated equally.  by loving Christ first, we will deal with our families the same way we would all others.

“If any man come to Me and hate not his father and mother, and wife and children, and brethren and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple."

Also Bible (Exodus 20:12): 

Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
