The Venn Diagram of “people that believe in Trump” and “people that believe in religious fairytale creatures” is just a circle. We need less of both of these groups. Not more
Why ‘people who want to dismantle our democracy and replace it with a far right authoritarian regime’ are vital for our democracy.
FTFY
- Thanks
  
  Ridiculous take on reality.
  
  Anyone downvoting the OP here is being ridiculous. Faithfully posting the article's headline does not mean OP agrees with said headline.
This is a joke, right?
- It’s an opinion. I don’t know the authors intention. 70% of Americans identify as Christian, according to the census.
  
  People of faith provenly work against democracy on the daily. It’s a joke. Not an opinion.
No, we don't really need help from people as divorced from reality as religious folks are.
In the comments: the terminally online atheist rails against his straw man of thiests. Nobody was surprised.
- Why do people focus on me? I’m a nobody posting articles for your infotainment. Your focus should be on the merits of the article. Do people really enjoy projecting hate into the world? Or would there time be better spent on self reflection and improvement? How do you feel about teaming with Christians to stop fascism?
  
  I believe you misunderstood my comment. I'm saying that you triggered terminally online atheists who cannot envision a theist as anything but evil due to fundamental attribution error. Just like the folks they hate, hilariously enough.
