Faith is the one thing atheists go crazy about

And you are so easy to fish in. Even my silliest posts got you guys all freaking out with hundreds of messages. I know I shouldn't be tormenting you but it is fun. You few that constantly responded gave me a good laugh but otherwise you're so predictable and boring too. Here's what some people have to say about atheists
[quote]Charlotte Allen says Atheists: No God, just whining
Atheists are a tiresome, self-pitying bunch whose primary motivation isn't rationalism but anger. I can't stand atheists – but it's not because they don't believe in God. It's because they're crashing bores.

Terry Eagleton take's to task nonbelievers for indulging in a philosophically primitive opposition of faith and reason that assumes that if science can't prove something, it doesn't exist.

Do you mean Charlotte Allen the Catholic Conservative who's all about anti-trans? Uh...ok.

I'm an atheist. Do you want to know what atheists really go crazy about? Having "believers," and knowing what goes in to that, tell them what they should do or think. And sometimes having their own lives dictated by fables, fear and hate. You know, like abortion. That's where the crazy lies. And it makes sense, right? I'm sure YOU don't like being told what you're supposed to think and do.

And crazy is actually too big a word because in most cultures you couldn't function because religion is so integrated in to societies.

I think it's safe to say that the vast majority of atheists don't give a shit if someone prays to a rock. As long as they're a decent person. But the "decent" part is becoming harder and to harder to find. It's the exception rather than the rule.

But given that non-believers are about 30 percent of the U.S., (and much higher in other countries), and is growing, (unlike Christianity which is declining), it's just a matter of time before we're a more decent society due to the absence of religion. It'll take a while but it will happen.
