    These people just don’t get it. Very few religious people actually care about the religion. They care about using it to feel better about themselves. They don’t read the holy books. To make a place they would want to go to, it would have to have VIP access if you have a letter from your pastor, and be all about how great you are for believing and much better than nonbelievers you are. But I guess the optics on that aren’t the same.

      Actually reading the damn book for real produces either atheists or screwballs who either abandon church based worship altogether for personal worship or who end up founding a whole new denomination that will go on to be dominated by the people who use religion to feel better about themselves.
