I'm an asshole for telling people that they shouldn't indoctrinate their children? For bringing up the atrocities that only religious people commit? I completely agree that people have a right to think for themselves. However, let's not go the route of "respect my beliefs, yo." (As is the usual argument I get). Sincerely, fuck that. I'm not going to pussyfoot around a controversial topic because I'm afraid to hurt someone's feelings. Before I go further, I'm going to move to the other thread, as it seems more appropriate.
Just don't call me an asshole because the mental well-being of other people

“Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.”- Voltaire
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?” -Epicurus
