Let me put it this way. If you're an atheist, chances are you're an antitheist as well.

Er...no.

Tell that to newborn babies. They aren't born screaming "THEISM SUCKS!".

Chances are, doesn't translate to always.

I know. But the point is there is a high probability that if someone is an atheist they're not an antitheist.

Zero newborn babies are, zero children are, and many--probably the majority I think--adults are simply atheists and not antitheists.

If you're an atheist, the chances are you're not an antitheist although some are and I'd say there's a lot more antitheists on atheist forums like this one than there are in the general population.

You had a good point. You made it.

That's the first this ever happened in this thread that I know of.

I sensed he was being condescending to me in one of his posts. But then I realized I do the same thing and a lot more often so I unblocked everyone I had on my block list. I'm random like that.

That post wasn't really targeted at you, I just took an opportunity to make nice.

Sorry to burst your bubble.
