It would be wrong to expect atheists or antitheists to answer for a murderer who used those labels. [View all]
It would be equally wrong to blame someone who honors the Bible and interprets it non-violently for someone else's interpretation that justifies violence. But I've seen a couple of examples on this forum of people implying a double standard where it's not ok to hold atheists/anti-theists accountable for violence, but it would be ok to hold an Abrahamic monotheist accountable for violence committed by another Abrahamic monotheist (based on common esteem for the Bible).
That doesn't make sense to me except as an attempt to justify prejudice against Abrahamic monotheists. Not against "religion itself" because we're talking about two sets of religious ideas, one non-violent, the other violent. Acting like a violent interpretation of the Bible is the automatic or natural interpretation only makes sense if you want everyone of a particular religious label to be regarded with the fear and mistrust accorded to potentially violent members, regardless of which set of ideas they actually hold. That is prejudice, and it is wrong.
