(22,803 posts)I didn't say there are horrible atheists who aren't allowing religious people etc." You are in fact the one arguing against the straw man of what you expect to read rather than what I actually wrote. Please show me where I wrote "horrible atheists aren't allowing religious people the right to hold their opinions."
I tried to say, "where are these horrible religionists who aren't allowing atheists the right to hold their opinions?" I am suggesting that we stop whining about criticism from religionists. I am suggesting we ignore their religious view and focus on policy instead. We achieve that at the ballot box and by persuading people to vote for the policies we like. We also have the option of suing when unconstitutional laws are passed by religionists. When have you been persecuted by religionists? Are you that sensitive to criticism of atheism by a religionist? That's the realm of opinion and debate, not actual physical andd mental harm.
