It turned out to be exactly what I expected... nothing but posts and memes bashing and insulting atheists. I put up some comments pointing out the stupidity of their claims. I was hit with illogical replies, insults and one dope who parroted "stop trying to force your beliefs down my throat!" on virtually every response he made to me. Then, not surprisingly, I was blocked and my posts taken down. These creatards crack me up. They put up a page that insults and bashes atheists, then act all surprised and indignant when an atheist shows up and comments on the stupidity being put on display. This isn't the first FB page that has blocked me for being nothing more than an outspoken atheist. Anyone else out there have similar experiences?
I have always been loved and respected as an atheist, I am however, hated as a flippant troll.

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)
