Atheist extremism is bad... mkay?
#9
RE: Atheist extremism is bad... mkay?
But if it's a misrepresentation of us then I guess the question is not only: "Well, are we going to actually do anything about it, and if so, what?" But the question is also "If "we" address it then surely we're contradicting the very fact that there is no "we" other than a mere disbelief in gods?" - what if addressing the very problem undermines the whole point of what atheism actually is... non belief in God? Ignoring such misrepresentation might have a better effect because addressing it might make atheism look more like something more than mere disbelief in God and ironically misrepresent atheism even further.

And of course there are many atheists who won't be bothered by any misrepresentation of atheism..... since atheism is divided other than its non-belief in God of course.
