Once, I was on a bus with a typical Chick-tract distributing fundamentalist. I was polite, so he was polite, (Chick tracts are fucking hilarious so I accepted the one he offered me), so I made some small talk.
The thing he said that stood out to me most before the bus reached my stop was "do you know that if everyone was Christian, there would be no more war?"
That's bullshit, of course, and medieval Europe alone disproves that. But then I realized a lot of smug atheists have the same belief: if only religion vanished tomorrow, surely war and other problems would just vanish in a puff of euphoria. Also bullshit.
What a creepy fucking thing to say. Straight up blaming everyone else for the violence inflicted upon them by Christians.
The other chilling implication was the belief that peace would reign if only every non-Christian was annihilated first.
