Might I suggest that your well-founded disgust with some 'religious' people should not be applied to all people with deeply held personal religious beliefs?

You are free to suggest. Others are free to reject your suggestion.
Not when I was raised in a Holy Roller fundamentalist Pentecostal religion that was crazier than fuck! Religion is a scam and people that fall for it are weak minded or mentally ill!
My religion is certainly not a scam and I’m really offended by this. Many of the people in charge are awful but that doesn’t make my faith a scam or me weak minded. Don’t be a bigot
Basically you’re upset because a majority of your demographic has used religion as a tool to keep others down. Meanwhile if it wasn’t for religion in Black Churches there wouldn’t have been a Civil Rights Movement 🤷🏾♀️ I swear to goodness y’all will do everything but call a thing a thing.
If it wasn’t for Christianity maybe there wouldn’t have been slavery and the need for black civil rights in the first place. All the colonizing and slave trading was done with a sword in one hand and a bible in the other.
If it wasn't for white people there wouldn't have been a need for black civil rights either, but you don't seem ready for that conversation kid.
Well, Allie, that certainly explains your aversion to that experience and congratulations for breaking free of such an oppressive institution masquerading as a religion. But surely you realize that not everybody's experience of religion is the same as yours, right?
Or maybe I just woke up and saw what a scam it is that other people haven't seen yet. I just don't understand how anyone can still believe that shit!
Yes, you saw the scam in your twisted fundamentalist 'religion' and that's great! Still, the existence of a ton of nasty shit in the 'bathwater' of some religious institutions does not justify throwing out, let alone condemning, the 'baby' of genuine religious beliefs of others.
And so what? You’re going to disqualify Cooper and vote GOP? Stay at home and whine about the NCGOP led General Assembly? This isn’t about you or your upbringing. We all have our childhood traumas.
You seem like a treat.
