Why so many "anti-feminists" in the atheist community?

Well I think the world would be a better place with more atheists, sure there are plenty of harmless theists but there are plenty of harmful ones because religion is bullshit and harmful bullshit at that: And sometimes the religious moderates give cover to the extremists by encouraging everyone to pussyfoot around the subject of religion. It needs to be talked about like any other subject and shouldn't be any more free from ridicule than any other subject.

I gave up trying to deconvert people ages ago. Losing or gaining beliefs doesn't work like that I've come to realize: When people finally do change their minds about something they want to believe it was their own idea. I've never known anyone converted to anything or deconverted from anything from a debate.

I would never force my non-belief down someone's throat that would be hypocritical, but in the past if I was ever able to deconvert a theist by debating them then yes I do believe that would have been a good thing: The more reality the better. The less bullshit the better. 

But I gave up debating like that a long time ago. Too frustrating, futile, hopeless and I have other things on my mind.
