Religous nutters and anti-religous bigots.
I agree whole-heartedly on the "let's ban relgions" thing.

Just so you know, I'm an atheist and have an irrational fear of nuns thanks to a childhood of being the only not-baptised-person at a particularly strict catholic school.

What annoys me about it, is that they always back up this idea with a particularly horrible example of religous bigotry, such as the bloke in whitby last weekend who was protesting against goths as they're all being horrible satan worshipers or something.

However I don't think it was a particularly compassionate or christian thing to do in the middle of a memorial gathering for that goth girl who got kicked to death by chavs.

Which brings me to my point, the examples are almost always of random nutters who don't really follow their religions' general teachings but just use them as an excuse to be vile.

If there was no religion they'd soon find another excuse to be total cunts to people.
