Militant Atheism?

[Data]

If we’re going to be accused of being militant atheists, I think we should embrace it and have uniforms or patches or something. I’m thinking something like the Swiss Guard.

Suggestions?

You object to the term military? The difference between the majority of atheists, who are apathetic, and the militant atheist, who isn't apathetic, is that the latter, not the former, are at war, in effect with theists. That's why I prefer the term anti-theist in this context. 

People ask me if I'm militant theist, and I have to think about that because in this context, these forums, I am. But outside of these forums I'm not. By the way, I'm probably more at odds with other theists than I am atheists, because of that. The majority of theists have adopted apostate teachings and accordingly misrepresent God, the Bible and truth. That isn't just an ideological objection, it's historically well documented as fact. Not only that but they are at war with atheists and everyone else because they are self appointed moral police of the globe in God's name, without God's approval. That results in deception of anyone who might be interested in investigating the truth. Atheists just reject their nonsense and think no better of it. I can't blame you for objecting to them, even though only a part of the reason I myself reject them. 

The frustrating thing to me, actually it's probably more amusing than frustrating, is that you think people like Moses, the Prophets, disciples, writers of the Bible are idiotic mythmakers, and you think people like Aristotle, Plato, Socrates, Anaxagoras, Anaximander, Empedocles, were great thinkers when actually Jewish and Christian doctrine comes more from the latter than the former.

Given all of that I don't consider myself at odds with atheists, I consider myself at odds with stupidity. Willful ignorance. Ideology.
