Free speech

I couldn't care less what anyone says about atheists. Almost everything people say about it is wrong, and I can easily rebut it. So can anyone who picks up a dictionary and has a brain. But mostly I don't care. I don't make it my identity.

I think part of the hurt of theists is that they can't rebut it. They know they have no legs to stand on, and can't put forward a rational response. So if they don't like it they can either ignore it, or cry about it. I wish more would do the former. There is a third option of course, which is they could think about it. Think about why it is so easy to make fun of religion, and that this is the point of (good) satire.
