Why are are these fanatics you speak off ? Is this an American thing where Atheists are all fanatics in their opposition to religion ?

Where I live it’s live and let live, and believe it or not some of us are even married to Christians

Same here, Dermot. I'm married to a Christian (For 43 years today), she has several family members I would call close to fanatical. Even WE get along, and, in fact, are closer than most other members. Many religious zealots here on CD are more opposed to freedom of religion than I, as an atheist, am. They are opposed to Islam ... I am not, but I oppose many of their radical practices ... as I do some Protestant/evangelical practices. They are opposed to Catholics, I am not. Mormons, I am not. I am FOR freedom of religion .... OR FROM! Live and let live! Stay out of government! Keep your beliefs to yourselves and we have NO problems. Why do they make such a claim?

Well congratulations Al on your anniversary .

Over here we rarely talk about religion and that’s the way it should be , when I was growing up the country was run by the Catholic Church who were tyrants and bullies who virtually destroyed the country , thankfully that’s but a distant memory

I agree keep your beliefs to yourself because if you try and ram them down my throat they are consequences

I find the American brand of Christianity seems to be very agressive and cannot stand opposing views on the matter , believe it or not I find the scariest people on the plant not to be ISIS , Russians or terrorists but hardline American fundies who scare the hell out of me

Hey congratulations!!!

I agree, there is absolutely no reason while people of sound mind can't get along regardless of their belief. We are all over the place in my family, from religious zealots to atheists and while there are some things we know is prone to heated debate, we tend to respect either other to not talk about it or not hold it against them depending on which family member you are with.

My opinion is, if you don't use your belief (including atheism) to hurt or oppress others, then you should be free to practice what you want.

But isn’t that the case with anything ? Why stress about it ?

I just looked up their website your claims about them are false ......

The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) is an American non-profit organization based in Madison, Wisconsin with members from all 50 states.[5] The largest[6] national organization advocating for non-theists, FFRF promotes the separation of church and state and educates the public on matters relating to atheism, agnosticism, and nontheism. The FFRF publishes a newspaper, Freethought Today 10 times a year.[7] Since 2006, as the Freethought Radio Network, FFRF

That’s not opposing religious liberty , why do you make such a claim ?

I sure as hell dont (pardon the expression) oppose freedom of religion.

They probably want freedom from religion.

Hey, if you believe they’re going to hell for it then why not just be quiet and let them burn?

I think Atheist support freedom of religion because if it wasn't for that then they would not have the freedom to not practice.
