Religion as a Problem

I can't argue with you there. I came to the same conclusion.  Why can't some of them see that?

I feel a lot of the folks who are vocal about that usually grew up in a very religious family and/or community. So them becoming atheist is their act of rebellion, and end up having a huge chip on their shoulder towards religion. Some people outgrow that phase, and others never do.

Usually the people who didn’t grow up in a strict religious environment are pretty nonchalant towards religion.
