Frink is right about religions promoting hate. As a ex Mormon I found many of our principles promote hate. Though we say to hate the sin and not the sinner, if the sin (homosexuality) is inherently apart of that persons identity then you can’t cover up the fact that you are promoting hate.

This is why religion is harmful to society. People will justify crazy actions because “God” commanded them to do so (ISIS). And now we are seeing certain Christians apply this thinking. Religion hinges on throwing logic away. The bible preaches that you should show trust to Gods commands no matter the consequences. For example, God commanded a man to kill his own son to prove his loyalty. Apply that on a 21st century basis. Some old crackpot Christian says he will kill his son to prove his allegiance to God. That is some sick shit.

Most of Gods actions in the Old Testament prove how much of a asshole he is if he exists.
