It's like you didn't read anything I said, yet for whatever reason, you decided to respond to it? Smile

I did respond to what you said, you're the one pretending that attacks against feminism are reactionary.  I think in large part, they are perfectly earned by radical feminists online.  They pretend that they're for equality across the board, but in reality, they only want rights and freedoms for their particular group of characteristics.  That's why I brought up the fact that those who argue that *ALL* lives matter often get shouted down by the feminists as racist and misogynist.

And that matters how?  There are no quotas, the "four horsemen" just so happened to be white and wrote things that resonated with a lot of people.  It isn't racist, it's reality.  If female atheists wrote things that lots of people wanted to read, then they'd be just as popular.  Maybe the fact is that they're just not as talented as Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens and Harris.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.
