I am straight, but my ass is gay
hmm
maybe peddling porn might have something to do with it
from what I've read, many who work in porn, actors in perticular
are from deeply religious families...
that said
atheism is hardly a shining example for good of the world
case in point:
I grew up during a time when church and going to church was banned officially. If you were seen entering a church or having church materials you could be ratted out and the party gave perks to the whistleblower.
The party was religion. There was no god but our great leader and our great party.
The churches were there, but many of the priests were tied with the KGB, (and many still are to this day)
Church going was mostly reserved to the old ladies who grew up back in the day.
Fear, murder and intimidation was used to gain and hold power for over 40 years. And all from staunchly atheist, anti-religious people who painted portraits and hung pictures of Lenin, Stalin which were actually kind of worshipped in a way along with their ideas.
Life under communism was just as bad as life under a converted, self-proclaimed man of god. Equally opressive, equally bloody.
Same shit, different story as they say.
Religions are created by man for man and used by man to advance his goals.
Humanity as a whole is just rotten we've always been that way. We pretty much would use anything in any way to get power. Happens every day and has happened trough time. Money, the banking system, politics selling people's lives away for votes ...
From personal observation, I've found that agnostics tend to be very laid back when it comes to religious debates. It's like they don't have such a hardon, as atheists seem to do, for converting anything that walks that there is in fact no god because they have not ever seen or heard him/it and _______ reasons.
And I think it should be pointed out that Atheists also use the same religious dogma started by and propagated from the early church to retain power and control people. Not to mention the hyper literal reading of the Bible.
That dogma/religious rules was voted for and approved during the first church council.
Many christians actually don't believe in this dogma. Look up gnostic christians. And read up especially on pre-catholic church gnostics.
