I dream of a world with endless religions - none of them theistic - but I'd settle first for a living wage. Priorities.
An impotent bunch of crybabies who are preventing the basic living wage you want by their misogynistic teachings.
If your wife or daughter is the average, she will give up half a million in total life income due to what some think is an impotent force.
That impotent force has it's hand in your pocket as we speak.
I feel it pushing my dick aside to get at my cash. Do You?

Atheists are a political force, thank the atheist god, otherwise we would still be stoning fornicators.

You hear so little about it in the media because atheists, in a very real and pragmatic sense, do NOT have the high moral ground. The high moral ground is whatever the moralists - in this case, religionists - say it is.
Humanists are a political force (albeit not a particularly potent one), atheists not so much.

The one who told the archetypal Emperor he had no clothes was an atheist.
Or even a cut above, a Gnostic Christian.
