If you're a literalist of any Abrahamic religion, violence against non believers or the ones going against scripture, is the natural conclusion.

I don't deny there are a lot of decent religious persons. But literalists are a different matter entirely. If they only pray for your demise - as we could observe on this very board - you're lucky. Some actually take action.

Literalists are as bad as every other fundie.
