Religion is a poor substitute for humanity.

It just is. Spouting cherry-picked verses from the Bible and then being nasty and cruel and hateful to others because they differ from you or disagree with you is not Godly, and it’s not right.

We have to stop. We need to remember our manners, think before speaking, and remember that these are our fellow human beings. They have thoughts, feelings, experiences, and lives that we know nothing about. Remember that we’re all struggling with one thing or another.

BE KIND.
