    The photos of Muslims trampling rainbow flags indicates that this isn’t a distinctly Christian thing. And there are plenty of atheists that are transphobic too.

    The main problem is we’re tribal. It’s easy to manipulate our tribal thinking to turn people against a group. Trying to turn people against Christians isn’t solving anything it’s just trying to fight tribalism with more tribalism.

    To a hammer, all problems look like nails. To an atheist, all problems look like religion. Historically, this line of thinking has never made anything better, it’s only made things worse.
