Atheism Kills Off the Ambition of the Lower Classes and Makes them Anti-Social

[Jenny A]

Blackrook, you make a number of unsubtantiated claims about athiests. However looking at the facts and using your criteria, atheism should be strongly encouraged as it obviously benefits society at large:

I believe much of the problems of the modern world is caused by atheism in the lower classes.

How so? Atheist are poorly represented in the lower classed and better represented in the upper classes. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/daniel-cox...46894.html

A person who believes in atheism is less motivated in life, less likely to start a family, less likely to try hard in his career, less likely to do what it takes to support a family and be a positive contribution to his community.

Atheist have a lower divorce rate than theists. http://www.salon.com/2013/11/01/atheist_...s_partner/ A higher education and income level than Christians. http://atheistscholar.org/AtheistPsychol...phics.aspx And lower teen pregnacy rates. http://secularist10.hubpages.com/hub/Rel...-Pregnancy

Also, atheism is a major contributor to such social issues as domestic abuse, child abuse, alcoholism, drug abuse, and crimes of moral turpitude.

Athiest actually commit fewer crimes than the religion. http://www.atheismresource.com/2010/athe...ligious-do

Atheist marriages are less stable and more likely to break up when Christians, especially Catholics, will stick things through and make it work.

Actually atheists have a better track record at staying together than religious couples in the U.S. https://www.barna.org/barna-update/artic...s-released

Atheism actually has no positive effect on society, and for that reason should be discouraged.

Besides all of the positive effects mentioned above, scientists are much more likely to atheist than deist. http://www.pewforum.org/2009/11/05/scien...nd-belief/

Having had this pointed out to your repeatedly, you cry foul. Oh poor me, these people are rude.

News flash: making baseless claims against a group of people is rude. Making such claims in their homes or institutions is ruder. You are in our house. Behave yourself. Would you like us to present these statistics in your church? Thought not.

But at least they'd have the advantage of being true.
