re: #93 Nyet

There’s also this trend of calling critics of a religion “anti-” that religion. Like the Mormon apologists calling the books that show the Book of Mormon or the Book of Abraham were Joseph Smith’s fakes (duh!) “anti-Mormon”.

I guess this is my real worry. Criticising a religion doesn’t necessarily entail being ‘anti-’ that religion. but i find it worrying when people want to make it all about being ‘anti’. i think it’s often an excuse to demonize one group in particular (as with antisemitism and holocaust denial). They’re not the same, but related, i think.
