The arrogance of modesty

RE: The arrogance of modesty
On the topic of Sikh's, pretty much every Sikh I've ever met has been fucking awesome. That's usually due to the fact they seem to hate Islam more than myself however.

Well they have every reason to.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

No. To me it advertises that they are shitheads.

The "holier than thou" vibe translates to "I am fucking insecure and want this (my dummy/ pacifier) to make me feel able to function" for me.

Then again, maybe I'm just weird.

No, I get a more unenlightened than thou vibe.
