I don’t know about him but it doesn’t change what I originally said.
Billions of people are religious, if they were all so problematic, the world would not function as it does now.
The reality is most people are quietly following their religion alone at home. Some crazy guy is gonna be louder and more on TV, but that doesn’t mean he represents all.
It’s really funny when you look at “leftist” Americans for example. They say they didn’t vote for Trump so don’t judge them for his actions, but they ignore that no religious people voted for any of those radical and loud few in a position of power either.

You dismissed a highly ranked and influential religious leader because you didn’t agree with the take. This isn’t a crank, but someone who had a large congregation and was influential in one of the larger religious organizations in the USA. It goes back to my argument of defining blasphemy. If a major pastor says something is is blasphemous, did that require a warning?
