45. Why make it worse?
I read a post from a catholic that called another religion a "joke" as well as saying "the Son of God founded this religion. When you go to church, you don't have some guy who decided to be a preacher for the 4th Church of God or anything."
THAT was from a catholic. I did not go around throwing that in the face of other catholics because one of them is an idiot.
My point is this:
1)You are going to see religion on du and on gd, unfortunately it is part of the political landscape, just ask frist
2)TRUST ME when I tell you it irritates me WAY more than it does you
3)Don't paint atheists or anyone else with a broad brush, it limits the value of your other opinions (which are insightful and informed from what I've seen-good point about priests in other countries having women on the side, by the way)

I happily get in snarkouts with fundies that call me out, and I'll admit I enjoy it sometimes, but when it comes to exchanging ideas and learning from everyone else on du, religion doesn't get in my way.

JMHO is all.
