Please stop equating Christianity with religion as a whole
A lot of the posts here are just pointing out how illogical religion is, which I don't mind. I'm religious myself, but I'm well aware how ridiculous it is. What does bother me is the arguments against Christianity that are used as arguments against all religions. Most of you were likely raised christian, so I understand why you focus on it, but most religions don't have all of the problems Christianity does. I think a lot of the posts here would fit better in an ex-christian community.
You're viewing a single thread.
Most religions share the same problems. Sure, they each have their own hangups, but much of what people bitch about with Xtianity is common in other world religions.
The majority of posts here are about the concept of hell, and proselytizing. Neither are aspects of all religions. There are plenty of arguments against religion you could make, you don't have to go after aspects of specific religions. If those are the only problems someone has with religion, then why should they be an atheist? They could just as easily find a different religion that doesn't have those problems.
