Atheists are Intolerant

[Aegrus]

No, Christians do wrong because the bible tells them to. Certain atheists do wrong because of the political philosophy they espouse tells them to. Thus, they are not doing wrong in their capacity as atheists but their capacity as communists, fascists etc. What is to be considered the cause of their wrong-doing is determined by what they use to justify it. Catholic church used Christianity to justify their actions, but Pol Pot and Mao did not use their atheism as justification.

You can scroll down to the section entitled "Nazi Germany" and see that Christians were persecuted by the Nazis as well.

Since when is inter-religious warfare new? Different churches are always killing each other over their beliefs.

SO let me get this right...Christians do wrong because the bible tells them to do wrong and atheists do wrong because of the individual and not atheism. That looks like a double standard to me. It is what it is though.

Whoa, back up. Pol Pot was a Buddhist. It doesn't matter given the context, but I dislike seeing incorrect information repeated.
