You know. That is really my beef with religion.

It’s like if someone started a nonprofit called “save the whales”. A lot of people see that, join and/or give money to them. Then we look at their finances and see 10% of their money goes to feeding whales, but 90% is used to kill whales. The people, rightfully angry call them out, but the members just argue back about all the whales they are feeding.

When you ask a religious person what their religion is about. They will tell you it’s a religion of peace, and love. It’s about compassion. But then you watch what they do, and realize they aren’t about that at all. They are a bunch of hate filled sex pests that do all manners of fucked up shit. Then use their god as an excuse. Because faith supersedes common sense every time.
