The dawn of civilization

[T0 Th3 M4X]

Go be an atheist in your home, go have churches like the theists do, or whatever.  But we don't need your nonsense forced on people anymore than anybody else's nonsense.  Be a friendly atheist, be an atheist who makes moral decisions, be an atheists who helps people, but don't be some nutjob atheist raging at the rest of the world who thinks differently or try to force anybody to join your cause against their will.  That's what happens when it gets injected into society.

Atheism spreads due to confusion that is often self-inflicted.  That's one of the big reasons "atheist" used to be used as a derogatory term.  Throw in the mass slaughters from radical atheists and people were probably pretending to convert just so the could keep their heads.  Now a lot of it is more civil, but still you have the radical nutjobs that contribute little to society while pretending like they're superior to others.  On occasion you might meet some that have a genuine intent to learn and contribute, and I would even say I've talked to some on here that seemed pretty decent, but overall it's one of the most annoying populations out there.  Always in everybody else's business, and bothering others.  Now a lot of them are also copyists.  The things they mocked the religious for are becoming the new trends in atheism.  Churches, offerings, potlucks, bake sales, hymns, religious protections, etc...  It doesn't bother me that they have these things, but why not be original?  Why not have your own things unique to you besides running around fussing about "No God."  Okay, everybody else gets it, and you don't have to believe whatever you don't want to.  But go do it in private or in a way that doesn't bother everybody else.

Personally, it's very hard for me to like atheists, but I don't want to hate them, so I try not to.   About 15 years, I used to belong to an atheist group similar to this, and most of the people were friendly and you could talk about science or whatever, and it was fine even if you disagreed.  Now it seems like most of what you get is nonsense.
