No, i'm saying that if going to church on sunday because you believe in the teachings without evidence is a lifestyle, then in what sense is a fascist rally any different and not a lifestyle.
I'm not equating them morally. I'm equating them practically.
The fact is, the IDEOLOGY is abhorrent.
Then you've a problem against the lack of evidence... so don't be Anti Theist... be Anti-lack-of-evidence... it doesn't have a nice ring to it but it's still better to be true.
If I were to say I was Anti Atheist... we would (or should) be having an argument over objective morality.
I am anti-lack of evidence. For that reason, I am anti-theist, anti-racist, etc. All of those things fall under that category.
You may as well say "I am pro-lack of evidence!" instead of saying you are a theist. When we are talking about a specific issue, it is acceptable to use specific labels.
There is no such thing as a values system independent of evaluators, and it is utterly absurd to argue otherwise. Even if god were the source of morality, he would be a subject, and thus the morality is subjective. The entire idea of Objective morality is as incoherrent as an "Unvalued valuable object."
