Oh, I see. So when you wrote this:
Quote:Well atheists, or at least state-sponsored atheism (which is why I labeled it as somewhat of state-sponsored religion), prematurely killed 110 million people in the 20th century.
You didn't actually have a point at all? Weren't trying to tie those deaths to atheism? You just said that for no reason, really?
Quote:Worse Than War: Genocide, Eliminationism, and the Ongoing Assault on Humanity...Daniel Jonah Goldhagen.
A book criticized for having, and I quote, "a casual approach to basic research," and has been accused of manipulating sources to reach false conclusions. Wow.
Incidentally, would you be kind enough to point out the parts of this book that cite atheism as a cause for genocide? Some quotes, maybe?
