The "atheist movement"

[naimless]

But it is one reason I won't join the "hitchins" type atheist. He died, let's move on to coexistence.

Unfortunately Dawkins & co. are still leading that rally. I think Hitchens actually had more awareness of co-existence than him, even if he didn't admit so in the non-compassionate arguments.

I try not to be rude but I have absolutely no respect/understanding towards religion. I think it is the plague of modern society, an out of control disease . I'm not one who likes to keep his opinion to himself, I openly hate on religion all the time. I feel feel like for every religious person I get to questions his/her beliefs I helped the progression of mankind one tiny but but worthwhile step.

I understand, it is a natural human reaction. But I think people need to be aware of the reaction that hate causes as well. It leads to more separation and fundamentalism as opposed to positive reinforcement and acceptance.

I can't help but realise the majority of atheists I have encountered enter arguments to win arguments for their own personal satisfaction. It generally has little to do with reaching an objective universal perspective. A scientist enters a debate to learn something new - they want to understand what they do not perceive.
