You know here in Australia, people have tried to “cure” religions they don’t agree with. White people have tried to exterminate Aboriginal religions. Because these religions were seen as dangerous and primitive.
Personally, I think taking people’s religions away from them on a massive population level is genocide. Aboriginal Australians have faced genocide for their religion. And to Me, this meme looks like a call to genocide.

That was ethnic cleansing using religion as an excuse. That’s not the same as doing away with religion. If your actual target is religion there’s no reason to mistreat people.
To me it really doesn’t look like a call to genocide. In a democracy like Australia, religion is being defeated gradually by education, rational debate, and mockery when all else fails.
They don’t know what the end times actually is/entails.
If you ask them for a proper explanation they can not answer beyond the fairy tale that they are taught.
But a specific thing grounded in reality they can not point to, and if they’re called evil for wanting harm on millions of people you can see them think “how do I declare the victims to be evil?”.
I’m convinced there currently are some in the US government who are so delusional that they think they in-person are one of the four horsemen personified…
Even worse, they don’t even have a decent definition of “God”. If they say something like that they worship “the God of Abraham” or “Yahweh” or “Jehovah”, that’s about as good as they can do to actually describe “God”, just giving it a name.
If you ignore names and just ask them to describe “God” by its attributes, and get really into details, you’ll find that no two Christians believe in the same god, and in fact, somehow, the “God” they describe will closely reflect their own beliefs more than anything else.
You do understand all these books by enslaved Bronze-age peasant tribes are made up… right??!
This is like saying someone doesn’t understand what the true nature of the Aveda Kevadra curse is. Or the true taste of the Stay-Puft Marshmallow man. IT’S FANFIC
You know that and I know that but a truly shocking number of ostensibly responsible adults … don’t

There’s no way to destroy cultural beliefs without mistreating people.
Who says you have to destroy cultural beliefs? The issues with religion are behavioral.
