  “Nigeria led the world in Christians killed for their faith in 2022, with 5,014, according to Open Doors’ 2023 World Watch List (WWL) report,” according to the Christian Post.

  This reinforces why many of the more ardent atheists believe religion generally is the greatest force of evil in the world.

  Meanwhile, an exceptionally zealous slice of Christians in the U.S. think

  world conquest passes as a struggle for “religious freedom” and opposition to it as “persecution.”

  That just so happens to also reinforce that Christianity specifically is perhaps most relevant evil.

    South Park did a wonderful episode on the atheist having a war over atheism. If an atheist is anti-religion; to me they’re not an atheist. They’re just anti-religion. I don’t dislike religion at all. I just don’t believe in god. Nothing screams little dick energy more than attacking something you claim not to believe in

      Well, being absolutely certain there is no god is going to far for me.

      But criticizing and strongly opposing religious beliefs because they have influence in our lives seems reasonable to me. Opposition to Christianity makes far more sense to me generally than opposition to Islam, because the former has people trying to Biblically define when life is conceived and impose that particular definition on everyone; the latter are half a world a way.

      Nothing screams little dick energy more than attacking something you claim not to believe in

      I mean…we spend a lot of time attacking different political ideologies we both claim not to believe in…so…I guess you can be Li’l Johnson, and I’ll just be Johnson Jr.

      All Christians? Absolutely not.

      Murderous Muslims? Absolutely.

      Overzealous Christians that believe in Dominionism? Also absolutely.
