    Not everyone who is an atheist is a dick i have alot of atheist friends their not assholes. The way you seem to percieve an atheist to be is like a rightous pastor always talking about religion there are few but they don't make out the majority

    Again, I didn't expect an atheist homophobe, it just didn't make sense to me. Doesn't mean I hate religion, so please stop perceiving me that way. You seem to have a double standard, you can hate on non-theists but we can't say anything negative about theists amirite?

    I know, but the behavior Tito exhibited is exactly the kind of dickishness that qualifies as self-righteous ignorance.

    EDIT:
    That's one of the major problems here. You expect only religious people to be backwards and reactionary.

    No, you just think you're intellectually superior to us.

    Say anything negative about anyone you want. But expect similar admonishment from me if you do so on the basis of religious belief, as you've done here.

    Fine, ignore what I say, keep telling yourself that I hate religion if that makes you feel better.

    Well forgive me for not standing idly by while someone generalizes myself and other religious people into backwards imbeciles.

    That's not what I was doing, if you would actually read what I mean. I have no problem with theists, my current girlfriend is a devout Jew in fact. But, I dislike people who use it as a justification for taking away people's freedom, you know people like the WBC, KKK, fundamentalists in general.

    When I see someone totally against gays and wont even have a laugh like Napolean maybe he was gay.You act as if it was recent there were many gays in the past like Alexander.And some Animals are hay so it cant be that "unatural".Personally I have nothing against see em as regular people but really know many.

    Right well I've already stated that not all atheists are douches, but Tito in particular said something douche-y.

    That part just makes no sense...

    As far as actual atheists go, yeah, that is the general objective...

    I read it perfectly well and I understand your intent. It's not readily apparent to you that what you said is incredibly belittling to theism and theists because you don't actually face your own ego. It's subconsciously (or skimming the surface of your consciousness, perhaps) accepted in your mind that theists are the only sorts of people that would support something like this and that they are in general trying to take humanity back a few pegs.

    But that's not what you said. You said "ignorant fucks ... insist on shoving religion down everyone's throat." You directly linked religion and ignorance. Even when the poster was an avid atheist, and indeed appears to be an anti-theist, you assumed that he was religious. When you go into an argument, discussion, or just random daily events, you assume that the backwards ideas are religious idea.

    That's a problem.

    Oh, that's what this is about! Now, I have to apologize deeply and sincerely, I misworded what I said. I did not mean to imply that theists are ignorant fucks. I know plenty of religious friends who are awesome people. When I said "ignorant fucks" I did not mean all theists. I was trying to convey "ignorant fucks"=homophobes,fundamentalists, ect. I was not linking religion and ignorance, I was linking ignorance and religious intolerance. Yes, I know that atheists can be ignorant too, but you have to admit that atheist homophobes are pretty few and far between, and as such I've never met one.

    Incidentally, there's an awful lot of random brutal violence that occurs in nature as well, so those things must be good. And since computers, medicine, and clothing don't exist in the animal kingdom, I suppose we ought to abandon them all.
