      Do you also hate people who believe in Indigenous religions like the Rainbow Serpent or the Tuatha Dé Danaan?

        Are they hateful bigots hellbent on ruining the lives of anyone they deem lesser-than, in the name of their god?

          No. I know lots of people who worship the Rainbow Serpent and none of them are like that. In fact, tolerance and open mindedness are important traditional values in My corner of Australia.

          It seems like you don’t hate religion, you just hate Abrahamism. And you’ve bought into the cultural erasure of every religion that isn’t Abrahamic.

              You can comment on the local religion. But you shouldn’t make the mistake of equating that one religion with all religion.

                  Abrahamism says it’s the only religion. It wants to pretend the others don’t exist. Erase them.

                  You said you hate all religion because of the actions of Abrahamists. You only corrected yourself when I pointed out Indigenous religions. Thus, you implicitly bought into Abrahamist erasure.

                    Let me be more clear. You asked
                    “Do you also hate people who”

                    No, i don’t hate the people. I hate organized religion—it is a disease and it’s used to prey on and control people. There are (allegedly) religions that are benign, and i hate them too on principle, but mostly the bad ones.
