I'm absolutely anti-theist,strong,militant non-believer,... but there are situations where US atheists should approach more tacticaly.There are cultural aspects which should not matter & opposing them would be unreasonable. Things like ''bless you'' when sneeze or using BC/AD. I feel that christmass is in this category. When we argue against important issues like god on money, in the pledge of allegiance etc....Christians don't see the difference (get the point)
There's a big difference. I don't mind using BS/AD say bless you or marry christmass, But I can't stand god on money,court rooms,schools,politics. As a life long atheist from EU-religion was mostly a non-issue, so when I heard ''atheist movement'' for the first time, I thot what nonsense (herding cats) but I see now,that there is a need for activism / movements in america.I think american atheists sometimes loose perspective and can have unreasonable reactions, becouse of the culture they have to endure the whole life.
