    Religion isn’t about not doing bad things, it’s about being forgiven for being a bad person. Religion is the justification.

      Yeah I committed fraud systemically for the last 12 years by making my employees work before and after they clock out. But it’s OK because I talked to my own personal Jesus and he said they’re cool with it.

        Jesus, Yahweh, Allah

        It’s all the same human toxicity being concentrated and used to abuse and oppress people.

          Religion just makes all of that abuse easier by telling the victim they are “a sinner” before if even happens
