Either case i understand why that is in slide.... but somehow islamism is always showed under a carpet and always go after Christianity... Is it because neo marxism as political allegory "meaning minorities are to be protected from the majority" but by that definition what about russians? Arent they oppressed by the west now?.

So i dunno, when i hear Anti religious... they obviously mean anti christian if anything. I mean look you dont have to replace islamism with Christianity... you can pick anything else. But what do you gain from adding another abrahamic religion i am just curious?

I like Bill Maher, but just to mention one example when they say "religion is dangerous... and by that its Christianity" I guess saying religion is dangerous sounds more neutral and nicer, more less controversial to say.




How old are you?  And please tell me you're still working on English.

We're not all anti-religion.  I'm mostly anti-wasting my time on morons.  

Bye now.

Atheism isn’t anti-anything by default. In fact, you can be atheist and still be religious.

I’m happy to state though that I think all religions are stupid and we'd be better off if people stopped worming that shit into their children's brains.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.

Atheism is neither anti-religious nor anti-Christian.  It is simply the lack of belief in deities.

I, personally, am fundamentally anti-religion -- and I just happen to be an atheist, as well.  
But the two are not strongly connected for me; I was anti-religion long before I realized I was an atheist.

Being anti-religion, I am apposed to religions in general.

Being an American, however, that tends to manifest in more visible anti-Christian sentiment (as opposed to, say, anti-Islamic, anti-Judaic, anti-Hindu, etc. sentiment).  This is because, as an American, the most visible and dominant religion I see behaving vilely from day-to-day, and the one which locally claims the most loud-mouthed defenders seeking to impose their unwanted views on me and mine, happens to be Christianity.

So, really, it's a simple matter of proximity.
