- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Basically your side believes in 100 kinds of magic and fairy tales, at least in America the majority of self described Christians believe that the earth is less than 10k years old wished into being by what amounts to a prick of a genie and a non trivial minority of these folks believe the Earth is flat.
After spending their life talking to believers who might as well be actual adult Santa worshippers its easy to be both arrogant and a bit confused by the non imaginary part of the holy heirarchy.
Talking like someone who judges groups solely by the actions of loud extremists and oversimplifies anyhting they don't understand.
Every theist believes in a detailed fantasy world that would shame the imagination of the average schizophrenic.
The Reddit Atheists have entered the chat and are here to stay it seems
Religion is objectively stupid. We are just expected to pretend you all are reasonable because you are the majority.
Bro thinks I'm a Christian simply because I don't like Edgelords LARPing Atheism into a Religion.
Let's go back to where you believe decline in religion has led us to fascism when 70% of Christians voted for a fascist take over of our society and 90% of atheists voted against?
Are you going to pivot to the no true Scotsman fallacy or go somewhere else with it?
I don't recall ever saying that a decline in religion lead to any of that. Literally all I said was that Reddit Atheism is more "edgy and tryhard" than it is helpful, if you somehow got "Abandoning religion did this." from that, I don't know what to say.
I just don't think it's fair to say it's uniquely a Christian problem that lead to fascism taking over America, especially when there are tons of "New Atheists" who are down with Jordan Peterson and other pseudo-intellectuals offering "Trans bad, upvotes to the Left" disguised as "Totally getting it bro"
Are you saying "Edgelords LARPing Atheism into a Religion" implies that somehow? Because what I mean by that is the tendency for so-called "Reddit Atheists" to treat Atheism like a Dogmatic Religion..
Sorry I thought I was responding to the other guy up the comment chain
All is forgiven
