How dare you say make such generalisations, is there honestly one good thing that a religious person has done in the name of their religion, that someone who was not religious could not do also?
Name one!
Then lets try the inverse think of a bad thing that someone has done in the name of their religion, perhaps?
I told you id get a lot of flame for this
It is not a generalization it is logic. I never said all christians are giving and all atheists are not, i just said that religious people are more enclined to engage in charity because of their beliefs. Dont trying to box me into a little overgeneralizing jackass, and actually think about what i am saying.
