The Communist dictatorship argument is a pure strawman Pol Pot, Mao, and Stalin may not have been Christian, but they weren't fighting for atheism, they were fighting for a political system. If we count every time a person of that religion/lack of religion committed an atrocity then most of the U.S. murders in Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam, Central America, Germany (x2), Japan (including the Nuclear bombs), The Philippines (whom the U.S. massacred EXPLICITLY with the purpose of Christianizing the Catholic nation) were for Christianity. That's probably at least equal, then we have slavery, which was defended using specific passages in the bible which advocated slavery. Now lets look at other countries- The Holocaust? A nation of Christians killing off non-christians with a blessing from the pope (who hope the Nazis would give the Vatican its own state). Should I keep going? Because really its pointless, there has never been an army of atheists marching through a town to kill the Christians, but religious based hate-riots happen all the time- In Israel, in surrounding Arab nations, in India, in the U.S.A. See the difference?
Hey Christians, you have complete control over American society. Your place in American society is PRIVILEGED. Other religions ARE NOT. Jesus son of a lying whore Christ, how fucking stupid do you have to be to not realize that? People in this thread are arguing that Christianity is written into the Constitution, and that we are a "Christian nation." Not only is that untrue, but it is some bullshit specifically pulled by Christians, and even though they know its a lie, they push it anyway- mostly because of their social power and privilege within American society. They take that privilege and push it on minority religions. But hey, keep playing the victim here. Everybody feels SOOOOOOO sorry for you. You spend 99% of your time assuming everybody has the same beliefs as you, and that it is ok for you to push your beliefs on them. TAKE A SECOND TO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN FOR THE FIRST TIME IN YOUR LIFE INSTEAD OF CRYING ABOUT HOW OTHER RELIGIONS DON'T GET THE SAME AMOUNT OF CRITICISM AS YOU. Instead of jumping into the defensive position, maybe take one fucking second of your selfish and arrogant life to be self-reflective- ask yourself, "why is it my religion is subject to such criticism?" Instead of instantly assuming it has never done anything wrong, and that others must be bad for criticizing it, SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN.
Now lets get to the real sin of your arguments. EVERY RELIGION HAS BEEN BROUGHT UP IN THIS THREAD. The pathetic trash trying to pull out the antisemitism and claiming that Jews somehow don't get any sort of criticism- are you just to fucking stupid to understand what I was referring to when I said religion was a huge cause of pain and misery between Israel and Palestine? Apparently the answer is YES- YOU ARE! The fact that some of you are even claiming you've been proselytized by jews is fucking stupid. I also believe I mentioned India and Pakistan, two nations that also aren't Christian. But geez, why is it a population only making up 2% of the U.S. population doesn't get as much criticism as the group that makes up 85% of the nation? It must be because everybody is unfairly attacking the poor Christians who just want to conquer the world and force everybody to think exactly like them.
Of course, the most privileged group ALWAYS is the one that bitches the loudest when their group is being discussed, so you have a ton of rabid christians crying about how its not fair that people are mad at them for forcing their religion on most of the world. Cry me a fucking river.
