    What is this need of Atheists to constantly declare that they are Atheists?
    Are you aware that you're acting like some uninvited missionary who comes to your door out of nowhere?
    And last,
    Does this mission of yours have some sort of a "saving the world from religions" goal attached to it?
    If yes, do you think that will solve world's biggest problems?

    there are 3 questions there for you to ask yourself.

    • lol what are you referring to exactly? also, why are they so uninvited? since when is not believing in bullshit fairytales and embracing reason a "mission"?monospaced
    • "How do you know there's an Atheist in the room?"...Morning_star
    • ..."Don't worry, they'll tell you"Morning_star
    • not to veer too far into politics, but the irony of the left, who are more prominently atheist, and more likely to support mass migration or dissolution of...IRNlun6
    • ... borders, is that most migrants come from very religious backgrounds. Example hispanics in the US, Muslims in Europe.IRNlun6
    • Why do you Muslims need to declare yourselves as being Muslim? Ditto Christians. And Jews.Continuity
    • atheists aren't prominent in any political groupmonospaced
    • Atheists are the only reason there's even a little common sense left in this world. Fuck me.Continuity
    • fair enough mono. I see atheism as more as a left/progressive, but its still a general minority overall so prominence is not right.IRNlun6
    • Yes, seeing the world/universe for what it is, and dropping the childish nonsense of religion, is extremely progressive.monospaced
    • How ironic to criticize atheists by likening them to christian missionaries, and then having the audacity to imply that any religion is solving a world problem.monospaced
    • traditions, culture, and the arts that emerged from religions are massive contribution to the world. even greek philosophers believed in deities.IRNlun6
    • not denying that in any way ... just saying that at this this point, it's not adding much to progress anymoremonospaced
