I'm relieved that Blogger left it. When I posted it, I got a message saying it would be deleted as hate speech. I added a few words to the beginning about not hating religious people and reposted. The message about it being removed has finally disappeared, so I guess those few extra words did the trick.

Religious belief is so much a part of society that even atheists are often unaware of how pervasive it is, or they shrug it off as just background noise. I think it's much more than that and inherently dangerous.
