Thread Name: BS: 'Militant Atheism' is a propaganda term
Subject: RE: BS: Strident atheism not a religion
Now there's a thought.

I haven't had a second coming since 1983. Maybe I should stop drinking beer... :-(

(and wrong thread but hey-ho) - I wish to protest again that I was responding to a stupid Ron post. I have no worries about my annoying Christians as an atheist presenting a rather devastating (as it turned out) biblical quote, but I have an issue with those who feel so stung who themselves had kept a complacent silence about the post lionising Joe Offer. It's fine to let it ride and feel the warm glow when you're being praised, and, more, being juxtaposed in high contrast with worthless heathens, but not fine to get all stroppy when one of those worthless heathens points out to you the injustice of that juxtaposition when you could easily have spoken out against it yourself. Bambi shot his own mum (a metaphor I've probably got a bit twisted, but, again, hey-ho).
