Controversial take for some probably, but these are probably the same people that think Islam is a violent extremist religion.
Not the Onion
For true stories that are so ridiculous, that you could have sworn it was an !theonion worthy story.
Shoulderoforion got you covered.
Well, that's a step in the right direction. Get all the religious crazies to attack their own.
Aaahhh the good and happiness that religions add to this world
If only doctors could treat it as the mental illness it really is.
With all the trouble Americans have caused the world, I can't wait for you to advocate treating Americans as a mental illness, as well
That makes no sense.
That means you logic made no sense, as well.
You can choose whether you practice religion or take it literally, but you can't choose where your from or easily move to a different place. So no, your logic is dumb but I'm guessing you know that.
Most people are born into their religion, so they didn't choose it either. It's also not easy to change your religion when everyone around you and your culture is based around that religion. So your logic is simply based on dumb ignorance of the world.
They are very different still. Being an American in itself has no affiliation with who is currently elected. It doesn't mean you subscribe to the narratives of the current political party, or that you have participated in wrongdoings by other people throughout history. It is just something you are.
Being born into a religion though is something you actually do. It is a practice & involves actions, which are usually associated with mental illness. If you practiced the same tenants of Christianity but instead talked to Fred who is an imaginary being living in the sky who told you to do things, you'd likely be diagnosed with a mental disorder.
