Poll: Atheists: What should be done about the theists?
This poll is closed.
Hold hands and sing Kumbaya. Look for the overlap and seek tolerance.

Take every opportunity to interact with theists in a way which might lead to their leaving their medieval mindset behind.

Not a damn thing. It is none of my business. Treat people as peers even when you don't agree with them.

Theists are wrong and annoying. They seem immune to reason so insults and coercion are your best bet.
2.70%

Interventions on a massive scale to free those still in a religious cult. Sedation for those who are too far gone.

Turn them into Soylent Green. It is time for a final solution. Round them up and put them out of their (or at least our) misery.

What shall we do about theists?

Sorry if you felt threatened. As the author of the poll I can tell you my intention was to inject some enthusiasm for each of the options, even the ones I don't personally hold. It might make you feel better to note that only one person has chosen that option and my bet is it was made to be funny. It's called "dark humor".

You might also note that the vast majority of us chose the live and let live options. If I hadn't made the darker options available you wouldn't be able to see how we don't choose those.
