It’s an always and never thing. Those are bad words to use when discussing reality. We can find exceptions where well meaning people gather together and do real good in the name of a god. Likewise we can find unfortunately far too many examples of people coopting the structures that the well meaning people have built to harm their community.
Seems like those people would probably do good anyway regardless
yes so let’s discount them because they use the name of a god to organize, as it coopts a preexisting structure and at one point in history made organizing a hell of a lot easier. like setting up groups on facebook.
it’s kind of like (and yes i get this is a bad analogy but i am a musician so pthbt it is what comes to mind) blaming an atheist organist for playing at a church because the musician doesn’t have a pipe organ at home
