I have thought about not writing this, but I do think this needs to be said:

This is not the right forum for religion bashing. It is a forum about
Ubuntu. You are perfectly entitled to have your opinions about
religion and to argue them in appropriate places such as on a forum
dedicated to discussion on religion or to atheism, but to insult the
religious beliefs of other members of this forum is not polite,
sensible or helpful.
