No offense, but that’s some funny right there. Religion stopping oppression. If history is any teacher it is that any/all (non)religions have their zealots:

Crusades
Inquisition
Salem Witch Trials

Even as an agnostic, I have problems with religious laws:

Blue Laws
Dry counties
‘Sin’ taxes

Atheism has caused far more oppression than christianity. Christianity has done far more good than atheism ever could. Blue laws...I don’t want them in my state but if a state/county wants them that’s their probative. Bloomberg is trying to do similar things in NYC with sugar and he ain’t no Christian. Its humanity which does such...not christianity.
