On the one hand... yes evangelicals and fundies fucking suck and i would love for them to immediately no longer have any influence over our government and our lives...

On the other... anytime anyone says it would be great if any religion "just disappeared/got killed/got imprisoned/wasn't allowed to ____/etc.," even if they are The Baddies... my skin crawls.

#maybe its the jewishness talking #but even if its the 'bad' religion you're talking about i just. cant help but viscerally recoil #because even though the harmful effect cant be denied #it still feels like waaayy too close of a slippery slope #to shit like. always going a step farther. and a step farther. and a step farther.#like that one post about 'everyone deserves due process - yes ESPECIALLY alleged pedophiles' its like #the moment a precedent is set for disregarding the rights/life/safety/etc. of ONE group - even 'the worst/bad' one - now the rights of ANY #group can be in danger #all that has to happen is for someone to decide that group is the next 'Bad One.'
