People today!

I often come across "fascinating" individuals who quickly categorize Atheist as "devil worshipers" and "satanist", when satanity is a religon composed of extant satanisms. And ALOT of people come to assume that Atheist are automatically satanist, when Atheism is the non-belief of religon in general.

Ignorance is a better word to describe them. Religious people in general are exceeding ignorant of the facts of the world around then. Unfortunately many of them are hopelessly indoctrinated to believe the things they have been taught to a point where no amount of evidence will ever change their mind. The good news is that younger people have more open minds, and atheism is a bigger talking point now than it has ever been. So the more information young people get, and as more closed minded get old and die, the less ignorant people there will be. Hopefully within 100 years the number of people in all religions will shrink down to a small minority.

It would be nice if it took only 100 years but it's probably going to be 500+ years before that's happens.

I find a lot of stuff some religious people do odd but what I think is sad is some Atheists are always attacking the religous, you might not believe in a deity fine so why give someone who does shit for their beliefs? If you feel religious people should leave you alone with your non beliefs maybe you should leave them alone with their beliefs

Exactly. That's well said. Im a Catholic and yet I still dont understand why atheists always treat us differently. I mean they're so "mean" when it comes to argumentations. Maybe that's why some Catholics think that atheists are the same as satanists. Back in my time when I wasnt still debating here, I thought that they are the same, but thankfully, the site finally cleared my thoughts about it. Even if im a catholic, I still dont hate the atheists because I find it good that they have their own opinions about the world. Some of us respect atheists, I just hope that they do the same with us. After all, we're still people, but we just have different beliefs.

Satanity? I dont think thas a word... But yeah. They see atheism as an enemy to their religion and put two and two together regarding satan. Yes they're stupid and ignorant people. If you're dumb enough to believe in christianity you're dumb enough to believe anything.

Sorry my friend "Satanism" is what I meant. I somewhat agree.

Most hatred stems from personal insecurities, which I view as a form of self ignorance (or self-stupidity). Unfortunately, I do not think stupidity, insecurity, or hatred are limited to the religious. Much as I think a secular society would be an improvement upon predominantly theistic societies, I also do not think it would solve all of our problems.

Side: Plain stupidity.

Atheists would not be involved in anything satanic. It is a stupid assumption.

Side: Plain stupidity.

Where are all of these religious fanatics? My entire life I've experienced religion being the oddity, not the other way around..perhaps you live in a mormon colony?

Nope not at all, just imbecelic people I presume, to blind to understand.

Side: Hate.

Well that's obvious, just that I have no idea how some people (like you I guess) have all the luck of seeing enough of these derelicts to even consider them a demographic.

Hmm. I was wondering which side to post my argument, cause I think it was a 50-50 for me. Hate and plain stupidity would do.

Regarding hate

Im a Catholic, and yet, I dont hate atheists, I just find it absurd that they dont believe in God, but I also see that they have their own reasons for not believing in them. I think they are just being rational, and honestly, I get irritated when some people think that they are arrogant or what. People have different opinions about life and we have different beliefs. We dont have to be angry if they have other beliefs. Its quite normal.Some Catholics get angry at atheists probably because we just see that they are being mean when we go to an argument with them. They could easily say their points without being sarcastic and degrading other people. Me, I got used to them.

About plain stupidity

I think it isn't stupid when people believe in God. Some Catholics are quite ignorant, cause they dont want to accept that there are other people would disapprove of you. Back in time, when i didnt know about this site, I thought that the two were the same, probably because we were not really educated by it then. And there are some things we hear from other people that atheists are like this and that. Thats why the conotation and interpretation of it is wrong. As ive been here, I understand their points and where they are coming from.
