No More Anti-Theists
|
You will do naught but encourage them, Shuffle.
Personally I'm quite strongly anti-religion, but yeah anti-theist indicates a dislike of religious people, which I generally try to avoid. Unless said person is a cunt. ![[Image: rySLj1k.png]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i.imgur.com%2FrySLj1k.png) If you have any serious concerns, are being harassed, or just need someone to talk to, feel free to contact me via PM  RE: No More Anti-Theists

I don't know. I was a firm anti-theist my last years as a believer. I can't speak for others, but during that period
religiosity and fundamentalism of all types pretty much disgusted me, especially of the Christian variety (due to personal exposure). Btw, I'm using this definition of anti-theist; one who is in opposition to organized religion. I suspect anti-theism is often a 'gateway' to atheism....Just Say Yes!

Iro, lol...anti-theism has nothing to do with disliking theists. I love one. Opposed to -theism.....not opposed to -theists.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

That one wouldn't work for me though. I don't have a problem with religion. Pretty fond of it, to be frank.

I have a problem with religion and theists. Should I call myself anti-relitheistitards?

"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."
