America doesn't need more God. It needs more atheists.

193. None of that addresses the point I made.

If someone holds a religious belief and doesn't engage in shitty behavior, I really couldn't care less how rational or irrational that religious belief may be because they're not engaging in shitty behavior that impacts me or anyone else.

So the people who believe abortion is a mortal sin and stand outside abortion clinics to scream at and harass women going for an abortion, for instance, are engaging in shitty behavior because of their religion. On the other hand, the people who believe that abortion is sinful but that women should be allowed to make their own choices are not engaging in shitty behavior despite their religion.

Some people hold religious beliefs and engage in shitty behavior, some don't. Some people are hardcore atheists and engage in shitty behavior, some don't. The issue is not belief, the issue is shitty behavior.

As I said, people shouldn't engage in shitty behavior. The world is immediately improved as a result.
