If you believe in god, you're an idiot...

Religion only cheapens our existence here. It literally devalues our lives by saying there is something greater after this. I find that tragic and believe that we should love this life more than anything because it's the only one we get.

Also, your argument about church being about community can be used to rationalize why the KKK exists. Sure, they teach hate, intolerance, and above all, teach that they are the superior ones, while everyone else are lesser beings; but hey, if it brings a community together, than it MUST be healthy and good for society, right?
