The only thing jesus/religion put in my path is dung.

I'm lost for meaning of your question?
You asked if Jesus being nailed to the cross was enough for me (more like it's enough to make me hate the story more). My response turns the question back to you. For if indeed Jesus being nailed to the cross were enough for you (persecution according to your analogy, and saying nothing about redemption), you'd need not even be here on this forum defending his delusional lies.

@ronedee,

Why are you even here?

Speak for yourself. I am.
My response was in context with the OP line of thinking.

"Homosexuals are not interested in making other people homosexual

Homophobic people are interested in making other people homophobic "

I'll extend to

Christians are interested in making other people Christians.

And the last sentence is?

This is how it looks in context.

You are always free to disagree with me Ivy, but I think making others into atheists as a goal detracts from the role a bit. I am interested in seeing others come to atheism naturally, as a process of evolving, but to hope to sway them at an undue time would be futile and counterproductive.
