And, if I'm playing the victim, I've learned to do it from the best: Christians online.
Of course, the interesting thing about that "logical fallacy" is the fact that no theist has ever been able to answer it.
Not entirely different. If communist regimes believe the best way to control the masses is to promote atheism than the two are at least tangentially related. By the same token, governments that believe the best way to control the masses is to promote Christianity (or Islam) have a vast historical record of killing in the name of their preferred god. Few kill in the name of theism itself since most theist tend to believe that only their god is the true god and so wouldn't want to promote other people's god.
Entirely different
