Good night, good discussing.

But why is the unknown put simply to magic? If you want to keep it to yourself about a belief that's fine, but religion as a whole does not do that. There is no way to stop religious persecution while keeping the sane religious people intact. If I passively agree with everything the Nazi party says, including it's antisemitism, I'm still persecuted even though I haven't personally murdered millions of Jewish people. Whilst I'm a "good" Nazi, I'm still a Nazi.

That is a very good point, however I am too tired to think of a good response so I regrettably have to end this interesting discussion and go to bed, good night Sharpy.

This may be true on the internet but not in real life. Don't believe me? Go look at all the laws that are taboo because of religion.

Also, if I told you the Sun is a giant peanut M&M and you're wrong if you disprove me otherwise because the voice in my head told me so, would you not think I'm an idiot?

At the first statement: it does happen in real life I know several Atheists that do not talk to other people simply because of their beliefs, as far as the sun being a giant M&M that is a valid point however the fact that none knows how the universe was formed is slightly different from that in that since we went there we don't know the truth about the beginning of time so whatever people want to believe is fine by me, if someone said it was the result of the giant M&M sun in a different dimension exploding I would have no way to argue against that.
