First of all, I wasn't talking about God, I was talking about "God", the meme (or set of memes). You seem to be talking about the actual things. Your above analogies are not valid for this reason. To use the first on your list, obviously the meme "war" is as useful as the meme "earthquake", even though both refer to destructive things.

While I do acknowledge that this list is a valid place for freethinkers to vent their frustrations about religios irrationality, this is just what I mean by people getting angry and abusive. It's very strange that the "God" meme gets you so upset. What, in your opinion, is the SECOND most destructive concept unleashed on man by man?
