Why? For the same reason both you and I are affected by the beliefs of Islamic nuts who blow themselves up and slam planes into buildings.
I really would like to not give a shit, but when the "parties of God", as Christopher Hitchens put it, use the only planet I live on for their childish game of capture the flag, with deadly results, DAMNED FUCKING RIGHT I care. You think it is "irrational" to care about how others can affect you?
This is merely another stupid argument to avoid any challenge to your belief.
If the fans of all three death cults could find another planet to live on, I wouldn't have to give a shit. But all three mix weapons and religion and put me in the middle of their pissing contest.
Well, I am not a Muslim. I believe Islam is false, But that is another topic.
Congratulations, I also believe Islam is false. But hate to burst your bubble but "poof" babies don't work as claims for me since I know that it takes TWO sets of DNA to make a baby. So unless your invisible sky daddy is willing to pony up with a sample of godsperm, I think you are screwed.
You have a comic book that creates men out of dirt, women out of ribs, treats the sun and moon as separate sources of light, talking snakes and donkeys. And a magic man who commits a fake suicide for his own selfish self glorification.
Listing to one fan of one religion point to another superstition would be like being at a si fi convention listing to a Star Trek fan point at a Star Wars fan and say "Yea, The Force is stupid".
The only difference between you and me is that I reject one more god claim than you do. Understand why you reject Allah as a claim and you will understand why I reject your claims as well.
It was understandable that Christians and Muslisms and Jews believed that crap back then. But it is 2013 and when you know the earth is a globe and not flat, and still insist on pretending it is flat, you look stupid.
