I believe that was what this guy was saying about you...No, it wouldn't. Authoritarian thinking concludes that the only way to eliminate unhealthy behaviour is to legislate it out of existence. Logical thinking recognises that rational people respond rationally to reason. Therefore, the goal of atheists is not to "abolish" religion. It is to expose the irrational nature of magical thinking, allowing rational people to conclude, on their own, that such thinking is irrational, and unproductive. In the meantime, it is the goal of atheists to limit the ability of the religious to influence the lives, and choices of the non-religious. This is why we oppose so aggressively any legislation that forces the non-religious to behave in accordance with the dictates of the religious.Well... no, you haven't. I mean after all if religion is the great evil that you think it is and if religion has added zero good, then the logical thing to do would be to ban all religions.I've already explained the logic. It's not my fault that your rage has so consumed your intellect that you cannot understand simple English.But you would if you could, right? I mean after all you do believe that religion is responsible for great evil and zero good, right?Nope. No need. Humanity is outgrowing religion all on its own.
How could you not want to abolish religion? How could that not make perfect sense given your argument? Please explain that to me because you are such a smart man who would never have such ridiculous logic. Plus who could possibly ever question your objectivity, right? I mean after all your belief that religion has done zero good and is responsible for the horrors of the world is such a balanced and well thought out position, right?
So please explain to me how abolishing religion is not the logical conclusion to you argument?
I'm not wasting my time watching some 8 minute video of some guy I don't even recognise. How about you paraphrase it for us. Assuming that you watched it...
