I'd also like to point out that similar de-conversion stories does not imply similar actions, i.e. that these people will react in the same way to different scenarios. There are plenty of atheists who despise religion, there are plenty of atheists who just don't care, there are plenty of atheists who respect it, etc.
X mandates that she act in a certain way
P acts in that way and Y is a consequence
Therefore society label X is (at least partly) responsible for Y
I am sooo confused. So does this make atheists, "X- Men?" Or are X-Men, atheists?
