And we can take far greater exception to some of the things Atheists have said about us, but we'll pass over them.
We can take far greater exception to what Christians have done to us, and other non-Christians over the years.
Were people in the past racist? Yes, they were.
Were people in the past arseholes? Yes, they were.
Were all great historical figures in Europe and America in the past 500 years Christians? Almost certainly not.
The American Founding Fathers were mostly, it seems, deists. And I can guarantee many political and scientific historical figures weren't Christians.
We know that if they had said they weren't, they would hsve been persecuted and shunned, at best.
