@SamHarrisOrg @ClydeRathbone Good time to re-read this article by an atheist about why Africa needs Christianity http://bit.ly/1bBbBLq

@SimonJonSmart@SamHarrisOrg Whenever I see Atheists defend religion I'm reminded of the insidious effects of patronisation. -
@ClydeRathbone@SimonJonSmart@SamHarrisOrg Questioning the "religion is poison`` mantra on sociological grounds is not patronisation. -
@DougJanack@SimonJonSmart@SamHarrisOrg Parris isn't questioning. He's concluding that superstition is useful - for 'other' people. -
@ClydeRathbone@SimonJonSmart@SamHarrisOrg Besides, if it wasn't useful, Mr. Harris wouldn't have to work so hard to "liberate" ppl from it -
@DougJanack@SimonJonSmart@SamHarrisOrg By that logic you could advocate witchcraft. -
@ClydeRathbone@dougjanack some forms Xty can be harmful. Some can produce MLK. Worth considering which is consistent with the faith. -
@SimonJonSmart@DougJanack if I were to suggest discrimination on the basis of race, nobody would need a religious argument to counter me - 8 more replies

@SamHarrisOrg@El_Lifto What? Religion is bad cause it requires an occasional day off? -
Tweet unavailable

@El_Lifto Yes, but the bit about no holidays struck me as somewhat odd. The other problems described were not specifically religious.
