I think that "athiests" are mainly people who believe in a god but don't like the way their life is so try to say there is no god. I know there are people who don't believe in a god, but I don't think those people need to reassure themselves by making slogans like this. I personally am not an athiest, however, I have had many friend who claim to be. I only believed one of them. He never mentioned the word "god."

 

 

I think people who stereotype atheists have problems dealing with their own viewpoint, but then again that may also be a false stereotype and I may be doing the same thing you're doing by stereotyping people who stereotype atheists.

Atheists are a diverse people and disbelieve for a variety of reasons. There's lots atheists that love their life, or are nuetral towards it.

 

 

 

 

 I'm sorry my post may have been misinterpreted. I guess I was being stereotypical to a certain point and I appologize.. As I said, I know there are true atheist who do not believe in a god. I guess I heard atheist and immediatly thought about irrational people attempting to ban all things christian. These people are not true atheist. People are not offended in things they don't believe in. They may be annoyed. But if I put a dragon in my signature, no one would be offended. No one believes in dragons. The same goes if I make something up right now. No one would be offended. So I'm sorry that when I hear the word atheist, I first think or extremists who just want someone to blame.



I have moved and do not have the internet at home, yet.
