If everyone was atheist

RE: If everyone was atheist
(June 21, 2015 at 1:46 am)whateverist Wrote: I chose "other" because I don't think the rejection of theism is actually elevating.  Universal atheism wouldn't necessarily signify any kind of general enlightenment.  Personally I'm not eager for theists to go extinct.  I would be pleased if they would at least become better theists, strive for more self-honesty and make more modest claims.  I wish they would eschew belief and maintain faith in the truth as they find it, whether that be theism or otherwise.
my bolding

I agree completely.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
