Then she goes and burns down a church would you hold atheism responsible? yourself as an atheist?
Quote:That would be a brilliant analogy if atheism indeed mandated to behave in a certain way, but it doesn't."The Revolutionary force today has two targets, moral as well as material. Its young protagonists are one moment reminscent of the idealistic early Christians, yet they also urge violence and cry, 'Burn the system down!' They have no illusions about the system"... Saul Alinsky, "Rules for Radicals", American communist, atheist, radical, and community organizer.
"Right! Her religious belief caused her to let her child starve to death. You seem to want to blame her stupidity rather than the religion. I blame both"...quote from Thor.
It could also, just as easily, be argued that atheism influenced Alinskys' call to "violence", and "Burn the System Down".
