Atheism is the lack of belief in gods based for me on he comlete and total lack of any evidence for them.
would you lucent think that your, (presumed) lack of belief in purple fairies was a 'positive' belief.
You are an afaireist, does this lack of belief in impossible non-exstant things impact your life at all? does it colour your judgement.
Now imagine that you lived in a world wher lots of people believed in purple fairies and they tried to introduce purple fairy friendly laws that intruded in your life.
When huge tracts of TV is taken over with people extolling the purple fairies.
When the fairy believers try to hold back science because they know how everything works, the fairies did it.
It would get fucking annoying quite quickly.
Fortunately I live in a country where religion is of a much milder form than the american or iranian brands but I fear that this world might be dragged into a conflation over who has the best imaginary friend.
