Rant against anti-atheist agnostics.

[robvalue]

I would probably be classed as an anti theist by most definitions.

I don't want to try and stop religion happening, I want the harm it does to be reduced, preferably to near zero. Also I want to end all of its special treatment. Religion in England appears to me to be pretty much at the level I'd be happy for it to be worldwide. I can only speak for the areas I have experience of, which is a fair few places, but there may be hot spots of problems. I've stayed away from big cities, for example.

I don't want to force people to think more clearly, but I want to encourage it.

I don't want to force anyone to do anything, except of course that I want anyone committing harm to be stopped from doing so!

I guess the reason I stick to just "atheist" for now is that it's already a fiercely misunderstood term, even amongst many atheists who don't think they are atheists, that to add anti-theist to the mix is probably going to make that problem worse, from the point of view of theists relating to me. But I thoroughly respect others wearing that badge. Religion has to be stood up to, until such time that it is as peaceful and non instrusive as it claims to be.
