Do you know what the definition of religion is?Atheists are the most devout religious group in the world
Capitalist Christians.
There is just no fukking way you can read Sermon on the Mount and then support today's 'wealth creator' logic.
Most fall at the first, most obvious hurdles of the religion outside of capitalism too... failing to love neighbours, failing to turn the other cheek, envious of others, actively seeking conflict... and, possibly most hilariously, routinely commit the deadly sin of telling everyone how "Proud" they are to be Christians![]()
