We should just all start calling them blasphemers whenever gods name comes up in a political discussion.
Progressives really need to take back being the party of morality and religion. I am an atheist and even I recognize the need to play to this side. Republicans have claimed the party of morality and religion and Progressives never seem to call them out on it. Like the GOP platform is basically the opposite of the message of Christ and I never see them called out for it other than message boards and comment sections.
Part of the problem is that in my mind, morality and religion are only loosely related and are often at odds when dealing with the realities of the main established religions. Like there are people who truly believe that one of the must evil things one can do is deny the existence and supremacy of their god.
And it's that stuff that sits at the forefront of my mind when thinking about religion.
Then there's the whole angle of some people needing religion or the invisible father figure always watching and waiting to punish in the afterlife or else they'd be evil (and actual evil, not "I broke one of the made up religion rules and ate the wrong species at 3pm on a cloudy wednesday and accidentally thought about a woman's bum while doing so"). I can't even relate to this.
