Is Coronavirus good for the Atheist movement? [Spirituality & Religion]

Nah Christians are alive and well blaming the virus on gay people and the like. They'll be fine, there are always new religious conspiracies afoot to help keep the interest of believing in 3,000-year-old sheepherder myths alive.

Atheism isn’t a “movement”. That would imply rules or dogma. All atheism means is not believing in deities. There need be no other commonality of disbelief.

I doubt it, very few people were unaware that horrible things happen to begin with, and this is far from the height of awfulness in human life. If you didn't abandon religion when you learned about the Holocaust, you probably won't abandon it from COVID-19.

What does any of this coronavirus stuff have to do with atheism? How do you even think to mention the two in the same sentence?

Preachers are waiting for the virus to pass, so they can get back to healing people!!
IKR?! 🤦‍♀️

It's interesting how you speak like it's like an ideological battle 🤔

Trolling trolling trolling 😁

Huh?

No, actually worse. It's times like these when God and His word have even more impact on both believers and non-believers. While the division among people becomes more evident, God's intentions remain steadfast.

Sure, Jesus said in Revelation 9 that there will be plagues in the last days and people would still not repent but keep worshipping demons!

A little taste of what?

Atheism?
Atheism has been around at least as long as religion. I don't see how atheism would have been amplified somehow by the virus.

Now, I do think the leftist agenda does include the promotion of atheism. And, I do think the left has been trying to politicize the virus.

But, the virus is simply a crisis not to be wasted.
Atheism is a policy kind of thing - not subject to change.

well this question made the world seem a little more godless so at least you have that.

As an atheist, this is the first time I am hearing of it as a "movement". 🤣

It is reducing church attendance.

What’s this got to do with atheism? Apart from the fact that you again show that atheism is completely illogical and has no understanding of history

One thing distinguishes someone that believes in God, the Holy Spirit, nothing else.

I don't think it has any bearing on that whatsoever.

I think hardship or difficult times actually pushes people closer to the comfort of their religion. But maybe not for all.
