Here is what a childish bully looks like.

[Lucanus]

There are lots of people giving it a bad name.

I hate guilt by association. Blasting religion as an idea is one thing, but outside that we should be looking at the individuals first, because that is what we all are, individuals.

I get atheists all the time who tell me I make them look bad. BULLSHIT, if someone does not like me, aim your anger at me.

I get where you're coming from, but there are se differences to be made.
Atheism, as a way of thinking, is much more individualistic than religions. Also, most of the times, atheists don't do things because of their atheism. I mean, atheism is not a religion and does not define the atheists as completely as christianity does a christian.
(dear dog I hope I'm clear)

With religions such as christianity or islam, the lines get really blurred, so it gets hard to distinguish between the people and the religion itself. Right now, I think that we, as the western world, judge ideas more from the people that represent them than from their own intrinsic value. Which is not necessarily right, of course.

and so we should come to the conclusion that the problem is in the religion itself, making act shit like that .

BINGO!

I have said attack the idea, that does not mean you can end it by force. But you have no choice but to point out the elephant in the room.

Religion is merely an excuse to form a group. It does create safety in numbers, but it also pits itself against other groups and even causes infighting.

You can't get rid of it by force, but the more people that accept this reality the less excuses for violence can be made.
