You people crack me up! You can have any ideas that you want; any [concept or theory] you dig-up and cut and paste is gospel; any hair-brained writer that supports your views ...
BUT... anyone (billions!) w/o "your opinion" are: (place your insult here)!
You let many of your fellow atheists get away with some of the most outrageuos stupidity and vulgarity I've seen on the net!
All in the name of forwarding your agenda: "Hate".
But, let a Christian lose his cool around here?! Does the hypocrisy need to slap you upside your heads to know it?
Atheists are the the epitome of "...straining on a knat and swallowing a camel."
You support a "concept" that means nothing! Subtraction. You take away any good that comes from religion, and it's billions of decent, loving people who believe that only Good comes from God. You try to kill a whole nation for the crimes of one state. Yet you try to change a nation for the opinion of one state!
"There is No God", is just plain dumb! No matter how you slice it, dice it or scream it from the mountain-tops....STUPID! And your efforts to make Chrisitians look dumb are pale in comparison to that quote!
Christians are Smart. Agnostics are Intelligent. Atheists?
My analogy of an atheist is like sticking your head in the sand.....and hoping you don't get kicked in the ass.
The onus is on you for proof. We have Jesus!
You are clearly a very hateful and ignorant person. You clearly do not know what an atheist is. I shall enlighten you: an atheist simply is rejecting theist claims. Theists say there is a god, we say: we don't believe you.
As for an agenda, atheists as a group have none. The only criteria for being an atheist is that you do not believe a god exists. The only agenda I can think of is promoting critical thinking and looking for evidence before blindly believing in something.
We don't suport a concept that means nothing. What are you on about? We simply don't believe a god exists. How exactly do we take any good that comes from religion? We merely point out that the negative of religion outweigh the benefits.
I don't recall any atheist movement or organisation trying to kill a nation, please elaborate on that point.
I also don't recall atheists trying to change the opinion of a nation based on one state
We never claim: 'There is no god' we claim: 'we don't believe a god exists'. We don't claim to know that there isn't a god. You are just demonstrating you ignorance on this topic.
Since you are making the positive claim that a god exists, the burden of proof is on you. We are simply rejecting your claim by saying we don't believe it. It is up to you to provide evidence of a gods existence, it is not up to us to try to prove you wrong.
Christians are smart? I'm not 100% sure about this but there have been studies conducted that show a negative correlation between religion and education. Meaning that the less educated you are, the more likely you are to be religious. I'm not saying all christians are stupid, but they are more likely to be. Of course education level does not necessarily imply intelligence levels.
I would hazard a guess at saying you have been a Christian since birth? It would explain a lot.

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech
