Atheists, do you personally beat your spouses and eat babies? I'm just asking the questions everyone

wants to know.

Atheists, do you routinely take thousands of other Atheists into remote countries, decimate their land, and hold access to food and water and shelter unless the indigenous tribes convert to Atheism?

Atheists, do you routinely go door-to-door in neighborhoods, knocking on doors early on Saturday mornings, inviting people to let you into their homes so that you can spread the word of Atheism?

Atheists, do you and your fellow Atheists support the wholesale murder of doctors who don't perform abortions, or publishing the names of women who didn't get abortions?

I say you'll know we have forced our agenda on you when:

When it says There Is No God on your money.

When a pledge, which we force on children in our schools does not say we are under god.

When we knock on you doors to talk you into giving up your god.

Credit for the actual domestication of rabbits goes to the early French Catholic monks. Because they lived in seclusion, the monks appreciated an easily obtainable meat supply, and their need to find a food suitable for Lent caused them to fall back on an item much loved by the Romans - unborn or newly born rabbits, which are called “Laurices.” (Laurice was officially classified as “fish” in 600 A.D. by Pope Gregory I, and thus permissible during Lent.)

(and especially those of you from Religion that are lurking here need to know this ) need to really meet a militant atheist. Or they need to go to reddit for a little bit. Because they have no clue. No. Fucking. Clue.

They would kick back their heels and laugh their assess off at the idea of any person here, individually or collectively, being referred to as "militant" because of a dislike of religion, or not wanting IN GOD WE TRUST on a dollar bill. These folks are hard-core nihlists and would take a big fucking shit on ALL of our heads for even calling ourselves Atheists BECAUSE we don't burn down churches and harass people attending funerals. Which is what they do. And they're awful people, but they exist.

It's like suggesting that all vegetarians/vegans are ALF/ELF members. Lets see...one group doesn't eat meat or meat products. The other doesn't eat meat or meat products and also spend a great deal of time burning down laboratories and new construction housing projects that kills people. Hmmm...yep. both the same.

fucking idiots

They had good reasons for militant anti-theist policies. The Catholic Church was in cahoots with the fascists.

Atheists make huge amounts of money in those television athiathons. Call in money and they will cast in demons and bring healing to all those who believe the least. Damn, those atheist preachers have huge palatial mansions that were blessings from Satan.

A believer can express their religion and share their religious beliefs and whatnot, and it's all good.

If an atheist talks about religion and its flaws, ZOMGWTFBBQ why are you fucking proselytizing you fundie atheist?!?!

It's related to the double standard that a believer can be 100% sure a god exists, and that's just fine, but if an atheist is 100% sure that god doesn't exist, OH MAN what an extremist!
