Your stance on Hard Atheism

[Chad32]

There is a small yet very vocal contingent of hard atheists who advocate for the genocide of all religious people. From your statements I'm sure you would agree these people are fucking nuts. I think it's high time for a more civilized dialogue between atheists and the religious, and while violent Christians are constantly condemned, there is much less acknowledgement of the danger of hard atheism. For example, if the subject of Stalin or Mao and the millions of people they killed is brought up, it often leads to a "no true atheist" argument.

Yes they are bad people. There isn't as much focus on the extremist atheists, partly because they don't have as much power, and partly because the core of christian and muslim beliefs is violence against people who aren't. Stalin was an exception. Not the rule.
