I mean, I think about how the "Conservative Religious Right", is trying to pass laws that would limit my individual freedoms, and I'm supposed to be nice to that?
It doesn't make sense. If Christianity is going to despise me for being bisexual, why shouldn't I despise Christianity? If they want to murder "The fags and dykes", why shouldn't I want to murder them? Some Christians want to make a "Christian Nation", why in hell shouldn't I want an Atheist Nation?

Because some people use religion as an excuse to satisfy their thirst for blood. I mean, if I hit you and say I did it because that butterfly over there flapped its wings, does that mean it's the butterfly's fault?
