Yeah that's how true believer acts, Hijiri.

Political, and social figures too, oh, and anime protagonists/villains* while we're at it.

*sometimes I bump into this person [in the internet] who wishes to eliminate all human suffering... by eliminating all free will, uncertainty, etc. as well as having an super AI to make all the decisions... which reminds me of the motivations of certain anime protagonists/villains (noble cause, horrible solution).It's even worse since I have a B.A in economics and his ramblings/delusions is wrong in so many ways...

Religion 101.

Well it's not as if Atheism can have anything useful to say about violence or The Problem of Pain either.

Nor that it eschews violence to achieve goals. Why would it ?

Ah she is taking the Kira Yamato approach to making peace.

That's not violence, but tough love ;)

Two Gundam series referenced in the commentary and comments: Truly a blessed post (even if it includes Seed Destiny's Kira).

I think Atheism would still work out, as you ain't hurting on behalf for a god (or gods) who may or may not exist.
