Well, I would certainly say it’s misleading, in that it suggests that people who start religious wars are substantially motivated by abstract comparisons of the quality of their god vs. somebody else’s god, which I think is simply false about the world.
But aphorisms can be both misleading and valuable, so that isn’t in and of itself a reason to not want it on the site.
Neither is the implication that anything that criticizes religion necessarily has to do with rationality, I suppose, though I personally find that more of a problem.
