In need of a more humbleness. Why condemning the Theistic position makes no sense.

[Mystic]

I rarely try to talk people out of their theistic positions. This in spite of the fact that theists are constantly trying to force their particular theistic ideology on others. So, for the most part, I think the basic tenet of this thread is false. It isn't atheists who are taking the heads off of infidels, who want to impose their ideology on those who work for us, or who are denying pretty basic scientific observations because they clash with our world view or faith. That is the exclusive territory of the believer.

I think atheists have been pretty tolerant of the evils perpetrated on the world by the theists. We are not burning down churches, calling for the assassination of religious leaders, destroying priceless artifacts, condemning women to servant status, or hounding gay people with prison sentences and beatings. There are some rare moments when I wonder just why we are being so passive. Then I remember, in the human race the believers outnumber the non-believers by a factor of, at least, 50 to 1.

The fucked up world we live in is being fucked up by believers. Yet they think outspoken atheists as the problem. Amazing.

I wasn't comparing Atheists to Theists. I don't know why you are.
