    I used to find this position deeply annoying, even long after I had left behind the Christianity I was raised on.

    My feeling was, ‘we get it, you’re an atheist, calm down about it’.

    Now, I feel these comments and others like them are vital. Religions have been a net harm to society over the course of history, but they present a clear and present danger to civilized society right now.

    Not just Christianity, and not just in the USA, but very pressingly with Christianity and very pressingly in the USA.
