Antitheism

[Heat]

You're talking about something entirely different. If someone uses their belief to commit a violent action,  sure I will judge them by it. However if someone is simply holding a weapon? Sure I might make some inferences, but I won't say "they are going to commit a crime with it" because I simply don't know. You are implying that those substituted words are representative of actions, which is different from withholding judgements based on an attribute.

All I said was that they "wield" it.  I didn't specify what they did with it.

I've already given my reasons for holding Believers accountable for their decision to belong to a Religion,
in other posts, but I'll repeat myself here:

A religion could be completely NON-VIOLENT and I would still object to it,
and still hold its members responsible for perpetuating, tolerating, and promoting its dangers.

Why?

1.  It is always unsubstantiated theories passed off as undisputed facts

(...and about GOD, at that!
This makes it not only unassailable from a logical perspective,
but also arguably makes it a "blasphemy" to CRITICIZE it...even if it deserves RIDICULE or CONDEMNATION.
It is why Charlie Hebdo got shot to shit;
it is why Apostasy is punishable by death in Islamic countries).

2.  It is not merely a belief that they keep to themselves.  They PROSELYTIZE; they ask others to adopt that belief,
whether they seek to recruit followers, or simply indoctrinate their own helpless children.

3.  It is open to interpretation, translation, misunderstanding.  Human nature will always corrupt and pervert it.

It's incredibly naive to think a person should be held responsible for not action, but simply thought that you disagree with, because they believe it to be true. Middle finger to the reformed racists of the world, of whom deliberately preached hatred of another race, they are to be held responsible for actions they have not committed, only empty chants, because evidently we must control and hold not only actions accountable, but ideas, and can by no means chalk them up to ignorance.
