It's the one thing that would speed up the decline of Christianity in the USA faster than it's declining already.

Many European countries are officially Christian, and almost all of them are less 'unofficially Christian' than the USA.

No one should rule the world. It would be no better with a majority of atheists unless they were largely humanists (or similarly benign moral philosophy) as well.

Bottomline is: If atheists ruled the world we would destroy it, something like a global Stalin soviet communism. We destroyed everything in our way to gain power to equal ourselves to god(I find it odd since we don't believe in God), we killed every christians(I don't have any complains in that part). And since atheists according to this video has no moral rules we lived only for ourselves and killed everything else. In other words this video was created to promote atheophobia.

I (and presumably you) have as much in common with the communists because I am an atheist as a Christian has in common with Al Qaeda members because she is a theist. My (and I presume, your) 'we' does not include the communists, who are pretty much diametrically opposed to everything I stand for with the sole exception of their atheism.

For starters, I would never countenance forced atheism. And I have MAJOR complaints about killing Christians. You are doing at least as much to promote atheophobia as that video, with such a remark, though I strongly doubt you really mean it.

Yes that's a good point.
