Atheism: The belief that I'm a monkey in business casual that can use a computer.

[–]skizmo 6 points7 points ago

For a lot of atheists every day is bash atheism day :/

[–]mnap1122 6 points7 points ago

For Christians everyday is bash everybody else who doesn't think like me day

[–]nickkid218 -2 points-1 points ago

For a lot of Christians, every day is bash Christianity day.

[–]Ell975 1 point2 points ago

Wait, I thought it was bash atheism day, not make a colossal straw man day.

[–]N8CCRG 1 point2 points ago

This. As much as I want to upvote all BAD content, this one is grossly inaccurate.

Yeah, but if we do it, then some of the other subreddits will get off our ass about the "One day of Islam bashing" crap.

wasn't racist but it was kinda of offensive but they did deserve it with their religion that has oh so many flaws in it that how could we resist?

what? fighting fire with fire? the heck are you talking about? they are a crazy ass group of people and we make fun of the fundies among them. why are you in r/atheism? this place obviously isn't for you if you think that way.

[–]Ronald_McFondlled 1 point2 points ago

okay i worded that totally wrong, SOME of them are crazy, those are the fundies. i know there are rational and reasonable islamics. sorry. and trust me /r/atheism doesn't take kindly to people pissing on it for making fun of religions. it's kind of what we do bro.

[–]N8CCRG 0 points1 point ago

Disagree. There's a lot of garbage and bad arguments that make it to the front page of atheism. I look forward to calling them out on it. Call it trimming out the weeds. Then, hopefully, afterwards /r/atheism will be of a higher caliber.

... for like a day.

[–]N8CCRG 1 point2 points ago

Well, I suspect it will mean different things to different people. That's certainly what I want out of it.

[–]a-t-k 0 points1 point ago

We can do better than that - for example:

Atheism - the futile attempt not to find questions to metaphysical answers through petty arguments.

or:

Atheism - the art of fucking off several religions at once

(ok, I have to admit this was rather pro-atheism)...

[–]innocuous_nub 0 points1 point ago

I'm a believer.

[–]Skarmotastic[S] 1 point2 points ago

Ok then, bash atheism. Go ahead, do it.

[–]innocuous_nub 0 points1 point ago

I'm a believer that there is no god. Don't jump to conclusions.

[–]Skarmotastic[S] 0 points1 point ago

Then bash atheism.

[–]EvOllj 0 points1 point ago

I am actually bored enough to search for "bash atheism" just to notice that 10/10 posts with that just do not touch me, because they are fallacies, silly or plain pathetic.

This one is one of the pathetic ones and my response is http://www.salon.com/2011/06/10/just_dont_get_it_supercut/
