One of the few perks of being an atheist is that there are far, far fewer obnoxious blowhards claiming that they speak for me. I'll take Bill "Smug A-hole" Maher over Ray "Holy Banana" Comfort any day, but that's just scratching the surface. Rational, honest, compassionate Christians have to deal with the Westboro Baptist Church, Creflo Dollar and Prosperity Gospel, dozens upon dozens of blood-sucking televangelists, that ridiculous Creation museum, pedophile priests backed by whitewashing bishops, crazy guys predicting the end of the world every few months, scumbag politicians cynically using Christ to duck responsibility for scandalous behavior, closeted gay social conservative activists getting caught with male escorts... It just goes on and on. Those guys do more to turn people away from Christianity than the FFRF ever could.*
Matthew 7:12-16
Trust the past to God’s mercy, the present to God’s love, and the future to God’s providence. -St Augustine

I don't know about that, but doesn't really matter much.

No, it doesnt. I've a reason for the opinion, but, like you said.
