    That’s the whole schtick with faith: it’s belief without evidence, by definition.

    Anyone prepared to have faith in anything is ripe for exploitation, by anyone.

    Churchies self-select for exploitation.

      You know 45% of Christians vote for Democrats, right? I think that was last election, I haven’t checked the recent one, but it’s a large fraction.

      I know Christians have done a lot of damage, and the evil ones are incredibly loud. It’s still weird how some atheists think that only blithering idiots exist in religions.

        … And the other 55%? The majority?

        And you’re taking a national ratio which is meaningless with a system like the electoral college.

        It’s still weird how some atheists think that only blithering idiots exist in religions.

        Look! We found one!
