They scoff at such meaningless display of worship. They feel smug and pious because they sacrifice babies to their god.

I can only speak for my family members- they think Bible stories are fairy tales. They have no faith.
and they think you are “crutchy” if you have to depend on a bunch of fairy tales to make it thru your day.

"science without religionis lame, religion without science is blind."
Albert Einstein
Enlightened liberals think Prof Einstein was agnostic, if not atheistic. If that were so surely it would've been easier for Einstein to renounce his Judaism than to flee Europe as Shitler rose to power

That is true, they have been pushing the idea that we have no free will or for that matter individuality. That would seem to argue against ridiculing people of faith though, if the people of faith, like all people, have no choice in their beliefs as they claim.

My feeling is that these guys have no actual sincere beliefs, but are instead run by the same sort of groupthink that exists in middle school. When they attack Christians it is about hating Christians as an out group and trying to come up with a barb that will wound. All the attempts to shame Christians into believing unproven leftist groupthink ala Buttigieg and Beto should prove to us they don’t actually understand us. They are just trying to hate on us and demoralize us any way they can, to shove us down and to keep us down. That’s all there is. Someone more clever than me could probably find a way to have fun with the angry hate bunnies on this point.

Like thosr who smugly tell us G-D is dead and Jesus is an imaginary friend who's father is an invisible non existent "sky daddy". EXCEPT when they're needed to fit their agendas then G-D is real and Jesus is a cool dude. They'll say Jesus was a socialist, Jesus was an undocumented immigrant. That supreme intellectual Madonna called Jesus an exhibitionist ( well he was naked on the Cross, like DUH!) Jesus was a vegan, Jesus was all genders, even those we aren't "aware" of It would come as no surprise if someone said he performed abortions. He's whatever they want him to be at the moment.

I notice that the "scientifically enlightened" never seem to scoff at "indigenous pipples," wiccans casting "hexes," or Melinda Gates trying to act out the Scofield Reference Bible apocalypse.

Renouncing Judaism did not help you with the Nazis, even if you were just mixed. They made laws in Nürnberg about it.

And quite a few nazis, including Shitler himself had some Jewish ancestry. They were an effed up bunch to say the very least.

Because their “god” doesn’t answer prayers without a proper child sacrifice.
