But Religion Did SOME Good Things!

To which I say: "Fuck You."

If the argument that religion has done some good things for some people seems even the least bit compelling, you should consider the other side of that coin: the horrible fucking shit it has done to so many.

In Topeka, Kansas there sits a church. The Westboro Baptist Church. Home of people I have long considered evil pieces of shit, but now wonder if they aren't actually terrified slaves.

Read the speech that Nate Phelps gave at the American Atheists' Convention in Atlanta a few weeks ago. (April 2009)

Then go read his article about giving the before and after the speech and the crowd response.

In the end, religion doesn't do anything for people that it doesn't equally undo with "interest".
