Christians go "tsk tsk tsk" and maybe shake their Bible at women who have sex outside marriage. Muslims chop their head off. |
Another 2 cents worth (I have about 68 cents worth of 2 cent'ers) We could probably come up with several categories to put Atheists into, but I don't have names for all the categories. In my case, no religious upbringing, read articles like the one in the OP for an occasional laugh, don't hate anyone, and think that everyone of EVERY religion is probably just seeking some kind of purpose or rationale to life. Then we have the one's like the guy that wrote the article, who is very insistent on his views and has to consider himself right, and is probably a true atheist. Then there would be the atheists that used to have faith, who probably still aren't really too sure. And of course, there are the ones who claim to be atheists to 1)tick off the parents, or 2)the hot kid they want to date is an atheist, or 3)no one wants to sit by atheists on the bus, or 4)yada yada yada. Zillions of reasons.
I have no need of hate, nor any need to try to convince people they're wrong...but there are a lot out there that do.
