5. Are you not aware of the horrors caused by religion?

Witch burnings, the Inquisition, Catholic priest pedophile rings, child sexual abuse at almost every religion, prepubescent little girls as wives, slavery, stoning

All these things have been publicly supported by many religions. Anti-religion should be the standard.

Yes, there are good people who belong to religions. But they will go along with the horrors created by religion without speaking up.

All those forced birth Christians probably don't go around killing women but they add their votes and voices to allow it. They aren't trying to do harm but that is the end result.

"With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil - that takes religion."

Steven Weinberg
