.@JMNR forcefully argues for a conclusion I've held for many years: while antitheism does not entail mass murder, antitheistic governments are highly likely to engage in mass murder. https://t.co/f8Hko8sG4V— Secular Outpost (@SecularOutpost) June 8, 2019

Anti-Theism doesn't lead to atrocities
Pieces by Christian apologists trying to link atheism to mass murder and oppression are as common as they are wrong. What surprised me was seeing an atheist hero of mine, Jeff Lowder, agreeing with a more nuanced take by John Reynolds.

Good Omens: Reflecting on death, heaven, and hell
So there's a new Amazon series called "Good Omens" which seems to be a BBC-like show about an angel and a demon who have been tasked by their respective sides to stay on Earth and win souls for their masters. It's a bit lighthearted on how it tackles the supernatural battle between heaven and hell, though it has serious moments trying to break through.
I've not finished what is released so far so please don't be posting spoilers, but having watched the first 3 episodes last night I did get struck by one key moment that has relevance for the atheist/philosophy of religion game.
