Believing in Deities is a Form of Psychosis

Korea with the WLB in the White House. So that's a two-fold asinine assumption on the part of theists, that they have an afterlife to look forward to (or three-fold if they assume it's going to be pleasant) and that anyone but North Koreans should be worried about some shit going down.
They can't bomb us into oblivion but maybe they can bomb us. I have some concern for N. Korean civilians. They don't deserve to die because their leader is a fuckface.

But yeah N.Korea is a gnat compared to us. We could take them out without using Nukes if we wanted to. But using Nukes on them could screw up the environment and mess up sources of food and water for our allies.

I think theists are a little more likely to fall for the propogand "It's ok, they're the enemy, they aren't like us."

I'm aware of that, I was merely pointing out how stupid it is to think that anyone on our side should be afraid. We've got things in place to stop incoming projectiles before they get here, and tragic as it may be, retaliation would likely result in that place being annihilated. It's just too bad the people there are largely indoctrinated not to see the Dear Leader for what he truly is. Even if we killed only him, they're all primed to just continue worshiping the next asshole to come into power. If their lives are truly as miserable and devoid of hope as the picture paints it, it's almost like a mercy killing. Even if they were to be liberated, would that work? Or is that battered spouse mentality too deeply ingrained to ever be excised?
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
