Be on the safe side, use 'cunts' instead of 'pussies' and remove all doubt.

This is why, if I ever register there I will so be using a different e-mail address and screen name. "TaraJo" has gotten to be too well known for calling them on their shit, not just here but on other places online. Can't figure they'd be able to catch on unless I pull a Dillahunty and openly confess (and I ain't that stupid).

And fuck PZ myers, Dawkins, Thunderf00t. They sold themselves along time ago.

That is all.

Could you explain?

I don't know about the other people here, but I only see two people on that list who annoy me.

PZ Myers has kinda thrust himself into the middle of the whole Atheism+ scene. Generally, most of the criticism I have for the radicals that seem to be taking over feminism is aimed at him since he's indirectly made hiself the leader. I could list the individual criticisms of him, but that would turn this into a tl;dr post.

As for Thunderf00t, I only really keep up with him via his youtube channel. He has a blog I'll check up on once in a while, too, but I don't really follow it on a consistant basis. However, when he was kicked off Freethoughtblogs..... he got a little 'obsessed.' I mean, he did one video that was mostly about elevatorgate (and he had legitimate criticisms of both sides) and then 3 videos about PZ Myers reaction to it. It was really annoying because I watch his videos for the scientific side of things, not for more social justice bitching. His blog around then was even worse since he dedicated even more space to bitching about atheism+ and other similar groups. I heard there was fall-out after that, and I really don't want to take sides in it or anything since I think both sides started acting immature and childish and were more concerned with winning an internet war than they were with being decent adults.

Not sure how Dawkins got pulled into everything there, but I'm open if anyone wants to give me some info on it.

I finding that people have pretty petty reasons to hate on anyone for anything. Dawkins? what could he have possibly done so horrible to deserve an Atheist saying "Fuck Dawkins"? It makes one think, did he rape their son like the Priests? I can't imagine judging someoness entire character off of one disagreement I have with them on one or two topics. I'm sure I might disagree with Dawkins or Myers on X but X probably wouldn't make me appall them just for that.

RE: Atheism +
You make rather fast assumptions on what people think. I said 'fuck them' not that I hate them. Dawkins may be a good biologist and I accept him as an autority on that, but when it comes to atheism he really makes infantile arguments. PZ, since his involvement in certain messes doesn't speak for me as an atheist.

You don't like that I don't particulary care for them? Buh-uh, cry me a river, you missed the point of my post anyway, because somehow, it offended your sensibilities. And that is another thing I don't care either.
