Not a damn thing. It is none of my business. Treat people as peers even when you don't agree with them.

Theists are wrong and annoying. They seem immune to reason so insults and coercion are your best bet.

Interventions on a massive scale to free those still in a religious cult. Sedation for those who are too far gone.

Turn them into Soylent Green. It is time for a final solution. Round them up and put them out of their (or at least our) misery.

What shall we do about theists?
#41
RE: What shall we do about theists?
As long as theists don't harm anyone or try to inject their theism into the government, my life, etc...I don't feel the need to do much of anything. I will share my own views, if asked. I don't like to be 'preached to,' by theists, so likewise, I don't wish to become a preachy atheist. If there is such a thing.

So as of right now, there are 29 (or 30 if you include the one "other") votes for the 'respectful' alternatives which make up the first three options, and just 4 votes for the 'disrespectful' options which make up the last three options. Since this was a poll of the atheists on this site I would argue that xtian stereotypes of hateful atheists is unfounded. [/shameless thread bounce]

I guess convincing them all to pull a Heaven's Gate/Jim Jones type thing would be wrong, wouldn't it Confused

Burn all religious texts, problem solved.
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.
