Most anti religion people are using it as a scape goat

Most people who commit actions that could be classified as "purposefully" going against religion are lacking something in themselves. They say that the people who wrote the bible were mad or they'll call great prophets cultists. Even go to the extreme of denying the existence of Jesus. They do it because they are lacking in something that could be solved by themselves; they also take a lazier approach which doesn't solve their personal problems. It rather suppresses their problems and create problems for others by attacking something that is purely faith based. The problems could range from low self esteem to thinking they lack intelligence. However, the people that take up anti religion sentiments do it only in order to temporary solve their own problems. Always at the cost of others, which is selfish. So I believe that people who are anti religious have personal problems; they take it out on others by attacking people on topics that are impossible to logically defend. Since it is faith based. I would be more than willing to further talk to people about my ideas and go more In depth into them. If I knew how to correctly speak English. Fixed TL;DR People who talk sh*t about religion have problems in themselves. They argue faith based topics that can't be logically defended by religious people.

    This topic actually holds a lot of truth. If you look at the core teachings of Catholicism and do research on why those beliefs are held, you will see that the reasons are sound and that obeying the 10 commandments (as well as following jesus') can [u]only[/u] lead to good things. But because evil was committed in the church's name hundreds of years ago, secularists only focus on that and ignore the fact that those who committed evil were [u]not[/u] following Christ's example. And yes, there is a lot of truth to the notion that people use religion as a scapegoat. Why? Because Atheism has no moral system. The common argument is that morality is written into our genes, or that morality is a trend, or that morality is subjective. In other words, morality is constantly shifting, according to them. What they fail to realize is that by not having a foundational belief system rooted in truth, they allow society to crumble. When this happens, what do they do? They look for an organization or a people to blame and this happens to be religion. And I suspect many of them do have insecurities. I have a cousin in California who often posts inflammatory bait on his Facebook about how religion ruins the world and hinders science. When confronted with the fact that the Catholic church pretty much pioneered modern science, he tries to find something else to pin on them. This is the kind of guy who posts memes about using logic and about science. It seems like he changes is profile picture very other day, often times to the aforementioned memes. He likes the [u]idea[/u] of logic, but he doesn't practice it. There is definitely a void in his life and the lives of those like him. But the best thing we can do is not to say "I am holier than thou", but to do what Jesus said and love our neighbors as he loved us. Lead by example and don't expect acknowledgment for your piety or generosity.
