    They said:

    English language forums especially US centric forums are populated by people who overwhelming deal with bad behavior by Christians

    You realize that what they’re saying is that Christianity is predominantly English, right?

    Read up:

    See, this is what I’m talking about. It’s seems most of the edgy teenaged atheists have no idea what they’re talking about and make up shit that they think will eel in them argument points.

    Also, in “dealing with bad behavior” one usually doesn’t make blanket hatred their chosen way to deal with it. Unless of course, you’re an edgy teenager trying to look cool.

    I stand by my statement:

    Real anthems isn’t about hatred.

      I don’t know why you assume that?

      It sounds like they are saying that English-speaking forum participants primarily come from areas with predominately or historically christian belief.

      There’s a lot of ESL, but that’s still probably true.

          Hey, look at that! Someone else noticed your goalpost relocation!

          It’s not about what language is used- kiddo, it’s about what is spoken using the language. My point it that atheism isn’t about hatred. You’re using language as a means to derail the discussion into something that makes it look like you’re winning it.

          You’re not.

          Dammit jim.

          Lmao. Jim if you don’t believe in any god you’re in good company, I’m right there with you.

          But that means all that’s left is human. We can be more charitable to each other than any god ever was .

          And it’s OK to admit you made a reading error.

            No reading error here. Just trying to keep within the wheelhouse of the discussion. I’m well aware of when people are trying to pull the topic elsewhere to dilute the waters.

      I didn’t say that Christians only existed in the US. I said that the behavior you are complaining about is a direct symptom of participating in English language forums dominated by US users who are expressing their experience with the dominant religion in their area that does most of the “outreach” to try to convince atheists that their imaginary friend will torture them for eternity if you don’t believe in them.
