So Long, Faith - Haven

   Growing up in an atheist home I found myself ostracized by persons of faith, quietly denouncing my own personal beliefs and fascination with fictional demons and magic. It sounds like a petty complaint, but in actuality I find religious discrimination to be a form of bullying and a great contradiction in the "good to all brotherhood" school of thought. Certainly, I'm not the only one who's been bullied in this fashion - even if some people believe in a deity it will never be another's "superior" deity.
   I see this mentality as childish, like a little kid being kicked on the ground for not having the best mint condition playing card.
   Perhaps that analogy is inappropriate; trading cards never made children feel insignificant as human beings. Indeed, I know people who are in depression caused by the belief that they are damned for eternity over a small flaw they may or may not even have control over in the first place.
   I see all of this injustice caused by religion, and I wish to end it in it's entirety. 
   Broil, burn, drown, apply acid to, the method of eliminating the concept of divinity doesn't concern me. I'm hesitant to call upon murder, but with enough government persuasion it may be possible to legalize for unsuitable persons. As of now, I recommend showing each and every pastor the corner of the internet and asking them where their gods are. I'm sure this will convince them to renounce their faith and ask others to do the same. 
   Over time, religion will fade away, and the suffering for radicals will end. Joy will spread!

Okay, maybe I chose a bit of a touchy subject. I just want to say this was all in the name of a grade for satire. You can never be too safe on the internet after all.
