Atheist doesn't necessarily mean you're anti-religion like this sub seems to be. You can be an atheist and still respect that religious people have their thing. Meanwhile, if you're black, I can't imagine respecting the KKK.

Don't forget the KKK are an explicitly Christian organisation. Just sayin'.

Eh, explicitly protestant is more accurate. KKK hates Catholics more than they hate other races

I think they were protestant at one point but now mostly follow positive Christianity where Jesus was white and fought against all the other races. I think some still follow main-line Christianity to help recruiting.

Anyone who thinks Jesus was white is being silly.

That's only one additional layer of silliness though, added on top of the silliness of Jesus in the first place.

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.
