RE: Religious people get very little reps, it's xenophobia and religionism.

You should not care about rep points, Winter. It's meaningless. I'm glad you're here because I don't see many Muslims around these parts, although I don't really go into the Islam part of the forum so maybe there are more Muslims posting in there. It's good to hear the perspective of a Muslim, even if I disagree with you much of the time.
I'm here to play devils advocate, so I'm not looking for rep or to play part in a popularity contest. My forum username is specifically a knock on religious atheists, which probably include half of the regular atheist posters here. They follow the religion formerly known as atheism plus, which now simply goes by the name of the religion of Soc Jus.
I don't need rep points, because being proven correct is more than enough for me. I was mocked for being the only one willing to come out and say there's a good chance SARS-CoV-2 escaped from a lab. I was called a conspiracy theorist and lots of people liked those posts and gave rep to the mockers, but now the mainstream media and even Dr. Fauci himself has done a complete 180 and the mainstream is now taking the lab leak hypothesis very seriously and asking questions about it daily. I was right, and that's enough for me. The mockers have egg on their face and shot themselves in the foot. They were repped over and over for posting what has now been exposed as nonsense, so Winter, what are those reps really worth when they got them for acting like they knew it all, when they are now being bit in the ass by reality and their position has been exposed as the truly foolish position.
I understood that coming out against BLM was going to make those who are incapable of thinking very deeply paint me as a Rush Limbaugh type of character and that I might never be able to get rid of that reputation, even if I point out that I'm so liberal on some issues, I not only support abortion at 9 months, but I would even say I would support post birth abortion in some cases, but it's easier for people to argue against my positions if they pretend I'm Rush Limbaugh and pretend that I hold all of these positions that I don't actually hold.
