    Anti-Theism is a cult that believes all of the world’s problems can be accurately blamed on the existence of specifically Abrahamic religions. (Seriously where are all the Angry Ex-Buddhists saying “It’s all bullshit!”. Reminds me I read the article on Buddhism on Rational Wiki… I don’t know if they updated it but they basically said it was atheism with extra steps which is… revisionist at worst and an over simplification at best)

    I think this tracks very well. Thanks for writing it out. That also brings out the term a-theism is anti-god not anti-religion. They hate Christianity therefore they project onto all religions as harmful which is simply nonsense. As a scholar of religion it is impossible to deal with these people.

    It pretends to be the position of having no religion. A deception.

    I know plenty of REAL Atheists. You know what they have to say about God? Not a damn thing because it’s not actually relevant to them.

    Sorry Edgelords but it’s not 2002 anymore where calling God a delusion is your fast pass to cool.

    And no I’m not Christian but I’ve had the accusation thrown my way. For the record I’m agnostic with a Buddhist leaning.

    This is how the majority of online atheists come off honestly.
