Militant atheism: Why it exists, and why we need it.

Quote:What I dont understand i suppose is the hostility shown to believers.



That statement is not true,at least not for me. In daily life I rarely have a cross word with believers. That is because they mind their own business and stay out of my face.


It's true I'm often downright aggressive to some of the believers we get here. To be hostile BECAUSE they are believers would be bigoted. I become hostile with people who are arrogant and willfully ignorant. Not my fault that they are mostly ALSO believers.


Case in point;read Gilligan's idiotic thread on god smiting people who mock him. The ridicule and hostility he is getting is because he comes across as a willful ignoramus who also happens to be a believer. I hope you see the difference.Tiger
