Atheist & "Proselytizing"?
#7
RE: Atheist & "Proselytizing"?
Complaining that we are only doing the same thing they are doing is absolutely the modus operandi for theists. It has to be. They must be able to pretend that there are two competing theories (colloquial sense) and that they have merely chosen a side. The right side. It is a fantastically effective way to convince the lay person. They have the advantage of having the majority of the population indoctrinated. So marginalizing the "atheist agenda" into some sort of fringe "belief" is a perfect way to keep people from even exploring. And that, after all, is the point. It is vastly important for theists, especially now, to keep people from asking questions. Things start to unravel pretty quickly if they do.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
