Poor little disadvantaged Christian martyrs, all 2.5 billion of you.
One of the most common fears I see Christians like fraudo express towards atheism is that, if given the chance, we'll treat them ad horribly as they have treated everybody else for 2,000 years (and still do today, whenever they can get away with it). This fear is fueled by the same conceit that produces arguments like "atheism is a religion" and "atheists just hate God": the amazing conceit that psychopathic and misanthropic Christian beliefs and thinking are default settings for humanity. Even if you reject the premise of that faith, you're still going to do certain things (from worshiping something to persecuting those who don't ) because Christians ike fraudo expect everyone else to be as backwards as they are.
