A certain beloved Turkish nationalist forum member shared the following thought on the manner in which "artificial minorities" (e.g., gays) deliberately outwit the opposition:
"In short, minorities do have their ways of trying to gain a psychological advantage over the majority. Like you say, "if they don't give us what we want, we're going to go out in freaky latex suits with dildos protruding from their sides or wearing wigs and fake tits just to show the public we can actually mock them and they can't say anything about it."
If atheists/agnostics can qualify as an "artificial minority" -- and if this whole reasoned debate and asking for good evidence thing doesn't work out -- this might be the way to go.
If nothing else, it would be a hell of a party.
