    I was raised by evangelicals myself, and also went through a nu atheist phase when I was 14.

    You’re a bigot and you need to grow up and put that away.

        There are nonreligious homophobes and misogynists and racists and trans phones. There are religious people who aren’t bigots at all.

        Clearly the religion is an excuse for the bigotry and not the ultimate source of it, or neither of those would be true.

        Saying that Judaism inherently inclines one to the kinds of genocidal crimes Israel is committing makes you a fucking antisemite and is clearly disproven by the number of religious Jews who have been vocally opposed to the genocide and to Zionism generally.

        You don’t get to “I’m oppressed too” your way out of being called out for bigotry.

            Some jackass once said:

            Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies.

            Let’s see if he was right, you said:

            You seem to think my view is that “all religious people have the same beliefs”. It’s not.

            But no, here’s what I think your view is:

            Are you saying that Judaism is an inherently genocidal religion/culture?

            Your response?

            Not any more than other religions, but yes, it’s in the book preached as the word of God and prophets. Israel is what happens when you put bronze age values in practice

            Let me cut out all the weasel words for you

            Yes

            Yes, you think that Judaism is inherently genocidal.

            Fuck you, you antisemitic trash.
