Yes, I saw it, but you seemed to have mistaken the meaning of the word "abolished", and that fact changed your whole point, so I was going to leave it alone out of kindness.
To "abolish" means to "outlaw", or prohibit by law, so it would make no sense for atheists to put up a monument saying that we "abolished disbelief".
Nothing in your response told me that you understood what I was telling you, I'm sorry.
No, you misunderstood. I said theists didn't put that up.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
