I have no problem at all with people of faith; In fact, I harbor quite a bit of admiration for their ability to believe that there exists order and "a plan" in what I see as a basically chaotic and random universe.
I do, however, have a problem with the ugly twin sisters of people of faith- people who degrade, devalue, and sometimes outright prostitute their faith by attempting to sell it door-to-door, as if the afterlife is a land of free appliances for whoever signs up the most converts.
I also have a HUGE problem with the wicked stepmothers of people of faith- people who use
their "faith" as a sword to divide society into "Us" and "Them", with the "Thems" being relegated to second-class citizenship because they don't share the same beliefs (or frequently simply don't interpret the same beliefs
in the same way) as the "Us's".
