So you're down w the privately practiced ideal atheism but not the more clownish and prejudiced version as seen in a more social representation? Probably plenty of religious people that feel the same way about religion.

Dunno if atheists are being told what to feel anywhere in this thread, but if I've done it show me where and I will rectify, am not in the business of telling people how to feel
― cardamon, Monday, 4 November 2013 16:48 (twelve years ago)
darragh, the more you claim that ppl are being anti-atheist the more the term loses meaning. it's like you're just using it to deflect the very real criticisms of your fascist intellectual movement.

I don't know if I'm imagining this, but if there are any atheists here getting offended, please be assured I'm only making fun of the ones who cry when they laugh and laugh when they cry.
These kind of folk deserve to be in here as well.

i'm trying to dance on the head of the pin here btwn enjoying the quality content itt and actually trying to find out what those of you i suspect to be serious in their quest to have atheism defined as a belief, practice or some absence-of-god in sad deniers-of-god's lives, so allow me just once more between lols:
you're down w the privately practiced ideal atheism
mayne, last time, one doesn't practice atheism. pls. i don't think your god exists and i dont miss him and im not looking for him behind the corners of what i do think exist, and i'm cool with that and i'm cool with you believing in him cos of whyever you do. but pls.

atheism is the theory, satanism is the practice

Ok, no practicing in atheism. So atheism seems to only exist for social or political reasons. At home, an atheist doesn't think about how god doesn't exist, etc., but if he is filling out a survey or asked a question or confronted in public, his atheism is asserted. Could you say this is the practice of atheism? To assert yourself publicly?
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 4 November 2013 17:20 (twelve years ago)

nope
Obeying the law isn't really practicing the law.
― pplains, Monday, 4 November 2013 17:23 (twelve years ago)
Maybe please provide more than "nope" and "you are still not getting it". Could you please explain what I'm not getting?
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 4 November 2013 17:27 (twelve years ago)
genuinely, now: nope.

does that scare u
The blinding logic and rationality of your arguments certainly freak me out.
― Emperor Cos Dashit (Adam Bruneau), Monday, 4 November 2013 17:32 (twelve years ago)
i'm getting worried about yr obsessive need to explain my lack of belief, or to categorise it, or to lump me in with a group that may or may not exist in a way that would suit yr own beliefs, tho, tbrr, but this is not the thread for that
― midwife christless (darraghmac), Monday, 4 November 2013 17:33 (twelve years ago)
xp as i said, i'm cool and down with yr belief in whatever, but tbrr 'logic and rationality' is not a strong rock upon which you should be looking to found this discussion imopo

atheism isn't some gentle and private disavowal of belief--it's an assertive ideological belief system and always has been. the fact that it, as a rule, tends to explicitly claim otherwise is the entire problem with it. it's not some space outside of belief, it's a belief and can be critiqued as such.
