Not believing in any one of those things does not make you evil. Just because someone chooses to live a live that does not involve religion does not make them evil.

People of faith say numerous things are evil. Heck, using the internet is probably considered evil in some religion. Just because a religion says its so, does not make it so.
It isn't just religion, but other cultures as well. Heck, go from one part of the U.S. to another and you're going to find extreme differences in beliefs, perceptions of evil, etc. Also.... that word is used so many times in the wrong context... Well, okay...in my opinion. LOL

Which word? evil? or religion?

Cause if you ask me, they are both often used in the wrong context.

No. I don't think it would be helpful it there was.

I wouldn't say so, but to one whose definition of evil included not being a religious believer of the right kind, it certainly would.

Logically, no. But then we know that logic is considered foolish, if not actually evil, by some religious bods.
