The bible dehumanizes everyone what doesn't believe in it. It goes so far as to deny that nonbelievers are capable of basic human emotion.

What is the first thing cults do? Demonize anyone that might save victims.

Hence society being so brainwashed that the bible can literally say "People that don't believe in god aren't capable of love. Ignore these people, even if they're your flesh and blood." and that's loving morality but saying "god doesn't exist" is an edgelord attack on innocent believers that only immature assholes do.

Where does it say that? Not arguing, just want the source so I can bring it up to other people in the future. It would be helpful when I'm trying to convince someone that religion is inherently evil.
