Here is the list of things theists need to get through their heads.
1. We are not a gang.
2. We are not a political party.
3. We are not an economic ideology.
4. WE ARE NOT A RELIGION.
5. We DON'T worship either sky heros or ground trolls, NEITHER EXIST.
6. We don't hate human rights, we do get annoyed by bad use of logic.
NOW, here is what we are,
DIVERSE!
Atheists do vote republican and libertarian, not me personally, but I meet them all the time. There atheists also whom worship firearms on par with theists. There are theists who value the "fuck you I got mine" economics of Ayn Rand. There are others whom value Che, the revolutionary dickhead whom lead to Castro's Cuba. I don't like either economic view.
Atheists come in all classes, we come from all educational levels, we have left every religion you can think of worldwide. We exist in every skin tone and nationality.
The only thing we have in common is "off" on claims of super natural god/s. Outside that if you want to know what an individual atheist thinks on issues of politics, religion or economic views, ASK THE INDIVIDUAL.
We really do get tired of bullshit blanket assumptions so when you debate us treat us as INDIVIDUALS.
If atheists hate having to repeat it, why are you?
Boru
Because we have to. Because of theists constantly being sold the bullshit idea that not believing is evil.
Now, please do not get focused on my repetition on this particular website, this is a reminder post, not just to our theist posters here, but also for the atheists here, to remind them that they don't have to put up with theist bullshit vilification, on this website or anywhere on the web or in daily life outside the web.
It is easy to get caught up in a narrow focus, we should not assume that because we know each other here, that mere lurkers or newbies that may show up, have the same interactions we are used to here.
Point is, it is a never ending battle.
I hate having to repeat my OP, but I will not stop repeating it because unfortunately, we do have to deal with theist ignorance.
