        No I was just hoping “Bible Bad, upvotes to the Left” was something we could outgrow BEFORE we graduate high school.

        It’s not a matter of respecting beliefs but of looking like an adult.

              So not wanting children to be indoctrinated is being edgy? Thats an interesting take

                    Thing is. I wonder if I can, because I know what game you’re playing. It’s the game people like you always play. You hunt for anything that can have any unsavory interpretation and pretend that’s what I meant.

                    I’ve seen enough of that on youtubers and in talking with those predispositioned to reddit atheism to know that’s what you’re going to do.

                    So I’m just gonna talk my ball and go home.

                    There’s nothing wrong with having a religion but there’s everything wrong with abuse and zealotry.

          Considering the political and social leanings of the typical Lemmy user, I think you’re going to be repeatedly disappointed looking for people who think the Bible is a good thing. In any modern and halfway decent society, yes, Bible is bad. Recognizing that something is shit isn’t an ability restricted to children.

      I don’t know what you’re complaining about the only people that ever read the Bible are atheists. It’s kind of hard not to be by the end of it. The religious type cherry pick their Bible verses and ignore the bits they don’t like.

        Atheism is fine. It’s when you insist that every instance and utterance of religion is evil and can’t help but to bash Christianity every chance you get.

        I’m literally not even a Christian, I’m not offended. I just am so tired of these tropes, they were lame on reddit and they’re lame here

          This is an article about a man who spends his professional life, and position of power within the education system, to force his religion onto the public. This is where you should expect criticisms of his religion.
