Why Do Atheists Criticize People's Beliefs?

As I said in th tat thread, if zeusian evangelists tried to get public schools to teach Mr. Olympus and Hades in science classes or a group of them tried to get a law passed saying only those shot by Cupid could get married, it’s very unlikely they wouldn’t have anything to say about it.
That crap is taught in school as well as Buddhism and the basics of islam. Christianity however is not to be mentioned.

Quote:Theists teach their respective doctrines as if they were self evident truths.  I’ve never heard one say. “This is just my opinion, but I       think my god is probably the only true god, and those who disagree are welcome to express     their own opinions.”
I've always said none of us have it 100% right. We are simply charged to do the best we can with the material God gave us. That is our only charge!

Quote:Yet, these “truths” don’t stand up to close scrutiny, so the theist would much rather not be subjected to scrutiny.
Smile which is why we post here.

Quote:Which makes me wonder why    they come to an atheist website looking for fiat credulity and act dismayed when they find it not.
because you guys aren't real atheist yet.

Real atheists don't argue. You guys are looking for evidence to become atheists or you are misotheists.. eitherway there is still hope
