Frankly, I'm sick of religion. It's not even that I don't believe, I consider myself agnostic. But I'm sick of people using religion to justify countless amounts of bullshit and violence in the world. People who are so convinced by their own "faith" that they will follow someone like Trump or George W. Bush when he says that God told him to invade Iraq are not people I want in the party anyways.
