New to this board and want to know the rules? Have a question for atheists? Then you should probably read the FAQ (Updated: 3/19/15). It's not necessary, but don't be surprised if people ignore you if you don't elaborate further on a question already answered here, or the moderator does something you didn't expect.

K.A. Applegate, author of the Animorphs young adult series came out as agnostic. And this Christian fan was so mad she vowed to get rid of her collection of Animorph books:

Interesting article, but stupid nonetheless. I have never met an atheist who refuses to read any book or consume any media for that matter, that is written by christians. Theists are so petty.

Reminds me of when sjws were boycotting Ender's Game because the author was against gay marriage, even though, by my understanding, it had nothing to do with the content of the novel.

>>5760
I wouldn't say petty, more like spoiled. If an atheist did try to avoid any media written by Christians they'd have to stay away from most books written in English. But because Christianity is part of the dominant culture it's easy for Christians to get used to having everything they read agree with them, and they have the luxury of ignoring things and people that don't without too much inconvenience.

I had a friend from a deeply Christian family who liked Ender's Game, but when I told him it was written by a Mormon he refused to read the sequel.

How about this one?

Steven Spielberg is directing a movie on Moses. Can you imagine if him or George Lucuas or JK Rowling came out as Atheists? If confirmed it would greatly hurt sales for their media and you would see lot's of blog entries like this.

I know parents who bought Narnia for their kids and forbid Harry Potter because C.S. Lewis is a well-known Christian and wrote on Christian themes. Star Wars is Christian
because it has dark vs light themes, but Star Trek is iffy. These are the parents that home-school their kids, make them watch veggie tales, didn't allow video games because they're violent, block rated R movie channels, and keep firewalls on their computers. The secret to winning them over is to put a cross on the back of your book and dumb down your fiction with a generic good vs evil theme, and a cartoon devil of an antagonist, to make Christians review it favorably.

Star Trek is *totally* atheist. There is nothing iffy about it. Humans in the story live in a society that has mostly abandoned superstition, including the belief in deities.

I boycott things like those because they don't deserve my money. Being a bigoted homophobe/christphile means you probably have nothing of value I want to see. Ender's Game was predictable as fuck anyway. A retarded twelve year old could have come up with that ending.

LOTR was actually good and I think Tolken was a christard.

I suppose my only exception to this rule are people like Mr. Rogers, who was religious but kept it to himself.

Many want to see us dead so the least we can do is not buy their shit.

Stalin and Mao didn't kill in the name of atheism, and if you studied history, you'd know this.

Most SJWs are actually religious. Pic related.

>Atheism+

>Atheism

Nice try, second pic related.

It's okay when we do it. Never for a second did I say that these people weren't "true" atheists. Either atheism has no bearing on their actions, or the majority of the group aren't actually related.

>>8038

An ideological movement, which has little to do with theism or atheism

Then again, I don't understand this 'atheism = marxism' meme in the first place, since atheism is one position on one issue and makes no claims on ethics, which makes it pretty much impossible to derive an ideology from it


bb69de No.8042

>Most of them hate Christianity for old white men

Something of which I've only heard from social justice warriors who are also atheists but never seem to have heard from atheists who aren't social justice warriors.

>Most of them aren't Muslim, though they do cover up child raping for them

Which again seems to be only the social justice warriors who are also atheists but not the atheists who are not social justice warriors. It seems only one part of that is relevant to what you're talking about and it's not the atheism.

I love being made to look bad.

Also I love how they decided to just steal the scarlet A that Dawkins came up with. I mean I've seen other groups do that but not while being hypocrites and attacking the creator.

So what, is it A+retardation?

And yet I can't help but notice everywhere I see a Marxist, I also see an atheist. What is it about atheism that makes you more inclined to be a SJW?

>>8042

That's merely the extremes. There's plenty of atheists who aren't SJWs but believe in SJW bullshit. Plenty of atheists like to believe that 25% of all women in American colleges are rape victims. Guess you guys aren't quite as skeptical as you like to tell yourselves.

>>8044

Good for them but that still doesn't equate atheism with that belief. Plenty of Christians probably believe that too. Plenty of capitalists believe it as is likely that plenty of cinephiles believe it but that doesn't mean that believing the myth that 25% of college women in America (the statistic would actually be 20% since they say it's 1/5 btw) goes together hand in hand with christianity, capitalism, or the love of movies.

If you belong to a group of people who refuse to read books by someone because they disagree with their opinions, it's pretty safe to say that you belong to a pretty petty and extreme group

And now you can make another completely pointless post claim 'atheism = SJWism' without even the slightest justification for your claim

You're stupid because you're wrong. You're assholes because you constantly try to make yourselves sound not stupid, play the victim, and brainwash others (including defenseless children) into your cult.

If religion didn't exist neither would atheists since there would be one less idiotic thing on the planet to get rid of. But nooooo, you and your christphile kin have to go and ruin everything by being dumber than dirt. Also, anyone who thinks the earth is only 4-6 thousand years old needs to be shot, slowly decapitated if they're geocentrists, and lit on fire if they're flat-earthers.

Are the christkids actually trying to hate people by calling them SJWs? What does that prove? Does that prove your religion makes you more hateful and euphoric? I don't understand it. When I was a christian, what I got from the bible was to treat others with respect, not to hate them.
