  1.  @helengarrett6378  ..I agree calling belief in Gods a “mental illness” is probably a bit harsh. But I understand the guy’s frustration. Believers of God stories (pick any of hundreds) are demonstrating ignorance and a very weak mind. As you point out, religion and its various God stories are used for “dishonest and unjust” practices. Which is a nice way of saying it’s a poison on the world. All I do with believers is try to educate them on just how ludicrous their stories are to rational people. And I try to educate them on the history of religions/cults in human history. For example, I think it’s important to remind Christians that their cult is a blatant copy of previous cults, particularly the ridiculous Jesus myth. It’s a clear copy of God myths in ancient Egypt, Greece, Persia and India. Lastly, religion continues to brainwash and indoctrinate children, which is completely unacceptable. It’s a major form of child abuse. That said (and needless to say) I don’t bring up my disdain for religions/cults with friends and family…lol!
