By definition, it is criticism, though I was more specific than that...

Ok... you have a point. I find it well that you recognize your privileges.

You have to remember, though, that Evangelization (Including being a fool for Christ) plays a big part in The Christian lifestyle. Although I fully despise the act of people giving one morsel of praise to evil itself (Satan translates directly to Evil in Hebrew), I would never pray for something bad to happen to you (Although you would most likely be Anathematized as you are now).

Ehh... I really dont feel like arguing anymore... agree to disagree?

Well, if I see someone spreading harmful falsehoods, I feel an obligation to push back against that. After all, American Christianity has been the driving force in fighting against many civil rights movements. (Not even just in the US, either - the Ugandan anti-gay bill was pushed by American Evangelicals!) Currently, there's a moral panic over trans people, pushed by - again, manufactured by Christians - myths of them grooming kids or whatever. And who do you think stood against marriage equality for so long? What do you think drove Anita Bryant?

Have you looked into the beliefs of the Satanic Temple? I'm a member and they're really not objectionable. And thankfully, the Catholic Church isn't powerful enough to make excommunication an effective death sentence, as it once was.
