RE: Shouldn't Atheists learn to accept religion?

Probably be worth it's own thread.
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!

Kinda pointless until there's some agreement on what the word means. I could be trying to prove apples can't exist for all I know.

Baby steps Rob.
Let's just start with gravity first, shall we?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

If we are driven to ensure that ourselves and /or our species survive and thrive then i feel we have a duty to teach intelligent thinking which includes anti religious sentiment in order to best ensure that our species survive
I do however pick and choose where and when I get passionate about this stuff and I do actually care whether or not it might hurt my religious friends by telling them things they aren't ready to hear. I have one friend who will never be ready to hear it but I love her to death because she's a very kind person and bursting her bubble is not worth the consequences of loosing her friendship.

Friendship is everything. Without it I would become a cynic. The disillusionment would make my life pointless. Friendship? Friendship is love.

No belief except the truth deserves respect in my opinion, but most people deserve respect.
