    Them both being responsible for some of the terrible things from history does not magically make them equivalent in all aspects.

    Believing in the Easter Bunny also requires one to ignore reality but that doesn’t make it equivalent to religion, either.

      Nobody ever ran a totalitarian regime, started a war, caused a genocide, or justified rape and slavery due to the easter bunny.

      Also, religion is tantamount to believing in the easter bunny.
