I never claimed that atheists believe in God. I am claiming that the "atheists" that get angry when he's mentioned do. And you know what I find offensive? When someone calls my God an oppressive dictator like Hitler or Stalin. |
And right wing republican politicians who use God to further their agenda really annoy me =P. But it isn't only politicians, there are a significant proportion of the population - especially in the USA - who base a very socially conservative (read: completely fucking backwards) agenda on the bible. They're called fundamentalists, and their beliefs really do irk me.
And I wouldn't know about atheists who get angry when God is mentioned, I've never met one. The ones I know (including me) only usually get annoyed with religion/God when people start doing things like I mentioned above.
