It does you injury, and has been doing the globe injury since before recorded history. Jefferson was a rehabiliting apologist as a politician....but it's not as if the definciencies of theistic belief were lost on him. He made that comment in criticism of those very beliefs. He saw what the beliefs we're discussing compelled people to do, or be.
LOL, we may never agree, so I'll just say it and be done with it. Theism.....is a problem. People imaging people as gods is a problem. That's just one of those "anythings"..that a certain number of people do believe in, that does make them assholes. We simply cannot believe anything we like...and..be nice to people. There are no free lunches.
The two beliefs are in necessary contradiction as the fundamental unit of warrant. In any conflict of interest, one or the other must be and will be privileged.
