I’m only asking reasonable questions. Would you let the pilot of a jumbo jet pray to the big juju god of the sky to land his plane? Or should he use his instruments? When it comes to matters of life and death, there are real responsibilities at hand. It’s tempting to write them off with your own interpretation of an invisibile super hero, but we don’t have time or resources for make believe games. It gets people killed, and does serious harm to survivors.

Exactly what part of that is “acting like a bigot”?

Painting all religionist with doing things like “pray to the big juju god of the sky…” You’re open ending statement above prove my point. I know a lot of believers who don’t fit any of your descriptions or concepts above. When you address a concept or group with something all inclusive and broad brushed, that’s bigoted.

And I don’t have a dog in the religion fight, I’m an atheist, and I would never make statement like this about those who care to believe.
