      To be fair this is fake af, agnostics might question the person, but shouting out of stage without making questions first seems very odd for that specific category.

      Cuz when you got to the point in life where you know you don’t really know shit nothing you kinda are more tolerant to new ideas and new concepts I would guess

      Oh yeah we’ve never had any problems with large atheist-run organized mass shootings 🙄

        If you took an informed look on history, you’d realize that religious killings happen far more often and far more wide reaching than ones motivated by atheism.

          Mother fucker up there acting like he ain’t ever heard of the crusades, Spanish inquisition, Salem witch trials, or the genocide of the Buddhist population in tiabet to name a few, though the Buddhist population genocide could be argued as atheist since it was perpetrated by CCP who don’t believe in most religions.

            It’s not an atheist genocide when it’s not motivated by atheism. People can follow more than one doctrine. An ultra nationalist can go to church but an attack on foreigners would be a nationalist motive and not a Christian one.

              How would you define “motivated by atheism” here?

                The desire to wipe out religious people in general and that was not a big thing in history. What’s more common is the desire to wipe out “heretics”.

            And you’re acting like you never heard of the Holocaust, the GULAG, or the Great Leap Forward.

              Oh no I quite have, no where did I say people wont find ways to kill each other. But religion isn’t the bloodless doctrine it portrays itself to be. But since you mentioned the Holocaust it is arguable that was a religious motivated event as people saw Hitler as a infallible god. Nazi ism was their religion and nazis even messed with the occult.

            Which atheist mass killings were there? Racist killings by someone who happened to be an atheist don’t count because the religion was not the driving force in those cases.
