The atheist’s comments continue an irresponsible pattern of demonizing one religion while celebrating the one he grew up with

What a shock, atheists are subject to the same xenophobia that Christians are and people will go through tortious logical arguments to justify their irrational thoughts.
It’s almost like this is a basic human condition that must be overcome with effort.
Criticism a religion is no “xenophobia”
I’m sure it’s an absolute coincidence that the British raised man thinks the religion of the areas his people colonized is inherently barbaric then, huh?
Where I live there were people that supported a law preventing government workers from wearing religious clothing/symbol. It was presented as “an effort to secularize the government”. The same people did not see the importance in removing the crucifix we have at the National Assembly because it was “part of our history”. More than that, some were openly against it. Can you see the hypocrisy and how that kind of law just happens to affect more Islamic people ? This is an example of underlying xenophobia. In the same way, I feel like Dawkins is clearly biased because he grew up in a nation were Christianity is more prevalent. Let’s just think about how in Poland, a predominantly Christian nation, blasphemy is still an offense that can get you to prison. How can that be seen as “decent” ? Or how currently in the US Christianity is used to repeal laws for abortions or LGBTQ rights ?
