    For me it was universal from the get go. My parents told me there’s a whole lot of religions all around the world and I thought “Well then all of them must be wrong.”

    It’s expressed as anti-Christianity because that’s the one that affects my daily life.

      Exactly. I think you see a lot of antichristian stuff from the US because that’s the religion that affects them the most.

        Yup, affects stem cell research, women’s rights, climate change, creationism … a lot of the US right wing is completely enamored with religion and controlled by it.

        If it the Judeo-Christian-Islamic religions didn’t have as big of an impact, there’d be more attention to Russell Brand’s weird cult and a lot of other crap.

        It couldn’t possibly be the nutters took over the hero’s journey and made it about something else entirely by losing a bunch of books on purpose and taking everything literally.
