Perfect example of what I'm talking about. Rather than approach the subject with the mindset of trying to understand something, you simply accept your own understanding of an issue and conclude it is idiocy. It's essentially saying "I don't agree so it's stupid" that is very childish. Apart from that, it achieves nothing in terms of atheists being accepted more as "nice" people, it has the exact opposite effect. In another thread on this site someone was complaining about the perception of atheists in society, it doesn't help much if most peoples experience of atheists is one of rude, arrogant, condescending and abusive language being used..
