Why is it more ok to denigratingly explain away
religion/sprituality/mysticism than it is ok to denigrate a
race? Both show a tremendous lack of understanding and a lot of
over-generalization and immaturity.
I notice that each time it is done it is done with religion
summed up in its most primitive forms so it can more easily be
disposed of. Isn't this game rather boring for all concerned?
What is the kick? A feeling of superiority over those
supposedly dumb and lazy-minded religious/spiritual people? Are
those that habitually do this routine so lacking in
self-confidence that they need this kick periodically?
