        Lol, you mean “go outside”? Pretty high bar for some internet denizens.

        I’ve had plenty of conversations with religious folks that didn’t touch upon their holy texts at all. And plenty of conversations with atheists that were interminably about what they thought those texts said.

        Whenever someone generalizes a group so drastically like this, I tend to wonder about how limited their life experiences must be.
