The negative influences of churches vastly outweighs the benefits.
Don't get me started on that. Or do, if you want. But I will rant.
I'm a bit to the right of Dawkins.
Religion is the root of all evil. Belief makes no sense whatsoever, and is the antithesis of science. Religion keeps society back in the dark ages, of witchcraft and magic. Teaching religion to childen is child abuse.
Catholics are exactly the same as flat-Earthers, and should be treated as such. There is no evidence of a God, like there is no evidence that the world is flat.
Flat Earth is relatively harmless, because very few people believe in it. But religion is incredibly harmfull, because billions of religious people get to vote, and that's scary. If someone believed that Santa Claus was real, you probably wouldn't want them to be allowed to vote on the science budget. But for some bizarre reason, if people believe in Jehovah or Allah, it is deemed acceptable. I do not understand why.
