A civil, calm, and well thought-out post

Here is my response for the next time a fellow atheist says that Scientology or another cult is EXACTLY LIKE every religion, all of which are EXACTLY LIKE each other. Ahem.

Shut your cake hole, you fucking ignoramus. The depth of your willful stupidity is only challenged by its breadth. Your superiority complex over nearly every other person who has ever lived is obviously fueled by a severe inferiority complex, and for good reason, as your brain is apparently the size of a walnut. In conclusion: either educate yourself, or never speak again. About anything. Ever. Thank you.

The person who made me hit this breaking point said religions told people to believe in vampires and werewolves.

Ok, did they say why/how? Because I *really* wanna know exactly what kind of 'logic' led them to this

[lliira]

Nope! It was in a list of things religions supposedly make people believe in. Fairies were also involved.

Not all religions are alike. But most of them require an adherence to faith based, speculative rituals and/or beliefs.

That's close enough for most of us.

[lliira]

No, it really is not.

How is it not? I'm not trying to start an argument (at least not at this moment), but how is it different? Or perhaps how is your religion or set of beliefs different?
