**I have absolutely zero religious faith, and I would never act like this jerk.**
It’s religious faith in a God of love and justice that creates a respect for fellow humans. Stalin and Mao were very unrespectful of fellow humans, and enforced a godless society. The Stalinists and Maoists in this country are pushing for the same.
**In my experience, a—holes come in all varieties. Some are believers, some are not.**
Real believers display the fruit of the Spirit, but when they don’t, God convicts their hearts, and repentance to God is the beginning of restoring the mind of Christ.
‘Its religious faith in a God of love and justice that creates a respect for fellow humans.’
no, not really...any number of freethinkers are perfectly capable of respecting their fellow humans; conversely, any number of believers are absolute churls to other people...
