1. Totally agree. K&R nt

[TBF]

2. It's such an easy concept -

believe in what you want but don't force it on others.

3. +1 ...

believe in what you want but don't force it on others ... and don't tell anyone about it unless they ask.

4. I will never stop shaming religion!

Committing genocide across continents is not easily forgiven. Waging war in the name of your god is unacceptable to me.

5. I reserve the right to believe - and say - that I find some religious beliefs total Bullshit. nt

7. Writing laws based on your narrow beliefs that we all have to follow...

is not fucking ok

you can believe whatever the hell you want but that is not what is going on here

8. Aren't the second and third doing what you're telling atheist's in #1 not to do?

Religions bring often bring the shame on them selves. But because we're atheists we can't just point it out?

9. I think atheists are a LOT easier on religious groups than they are on each other....

Some Xians think the Mormons aren't Xian...others think the Catholics aren't.

The Catholic/Protestant thing has drawn a lot of blood over the centuries.

Lots of religions and they all think they are chosen of the gods.

They spew hate at each other... but they really get pissed if an atheist questions any of the bizarre dogma.

10. so no matter what people say they believe

and how they act because of it, we better not say anything about it

riiiiiiiiiiiiiight

11. Is "intellectualising spirituality as...stupid" the same as mocking

someone who believes that a 500 year old guy hand built a boat large enough for two of every species and then used magic to get them calmly on same said boat for a couple of months in order to repopulate the planet?

If so, yep that's what I'm doing and I won't stop it either. I have a right to think that's insane and that people should stop using the book that contains that story as a justification for war and cruelness.
