Same as above.
Fundamentalist: "You are going to hell"
Atheist fanatic: "You are stupid"
I disagree.
Fundamentalist: blows up abortion clinics, destroys entire buildings with a plane murdering thousands of people, decapitates a woman for being an accused apostate
Atheist 'fanatic' (???): tells people she thinks their religion and the dogmas it employs is retarded.

Doctrine? What is that thing? Is it related to some doctor?
Do note that both those term have implicit belief that some extraordinary agent exists... around here, that belief is far from granted.
Besides, any institution that requires belief automatically lacks credibility. Think about it...
If belief is hope, then pretty much anything requires it. If I get a job, it is with hope for money and their hope for my work. Everything I do requires faith in something for us to function as a society.
Faith in the imaginary =/= hope in there realisable.
There's a good chance you will get the by applying for it vis not applying for it. You also have a pretty good reason for thinking the job exists.
False equivocation to then compare this to an imaginary being that has as of yet no verifiable evidence of its existance.
You can't sleight of hand those who do not believe in a deity to somehow then be exactly the same as those who do, but just that they 'put their faith in something else'. Come on, no need to insult us eh?
