I feel the same way when you guys complain about theists denying people their rights, but remain silent about non-theists denying people their rights. It's akin to the silence from the muslim community about the atrocities committed by muslims around the world. I get the feeling that you believe that non-theists don't do that kind of thing, because they're not infected by religious ideas. Then you make silly claims about how the world would be a better place if we could get rid of all religions. So here is my silly argument. I see non-theists denying people their rights, so I believe that not believing in God causes people to do that. We could do the the world a great service by getting rid of all non-theists.
You might be able to make a ghost of a point there if atheism had any creed or tenets or doctrine or rules. There is nothing about 'I don't believe in God' that leads to any action at all besides not believing in God.
