People who are deists, theists or pantheists or even agnostics to some degree tend to be more open minded. So it just doesnt seem like there is any point to debate atheists about religion in same way there is no point debating a marxist of the benefits of capitalism
Atheism is not Marxism as they are two entirely different thinks.
I have "made up my mind there is no god" for the same reason you "have made up your mind there are no penguins that have started a small colony on the moon".
To be clear there s more chance of penguins with a functioning colony on the moon because there is evidence for the existence of penguins.
Marxism is seizing the means of production and distributing profits amongst the workers.
Trying to compare the two is like saying comparing a silver hammer to sense of superiority.
Marxism has its plus points by the way but I favour a mixed economy like you get in, for example, Sweden, your country.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
