"The English word militant is both an adjective and a noun, and is generally used to mean vigorously active, combative and aggressive, especially in support of a cause"

SAY IT.

militant atheist

@Scribblehatch We use the word "militant Christian" to refer to people who go around proselytizing all the time and trying to ban any displays that offend their religious sensibilities. It is only logical to extend that to atheists to proselytize and file lawsuits anytime someone says "god" or puts up a 10 commandments display.

They believe in something, for fuck sake.

But then again, as long as these Atheists are just assholes that are ranting in front of a camera, I don't really have a Problem with it.

But if they start killing believers, I do.

Angry Militants of any stripe are always a problem

Atheist is just too goddamn broad.

After I stepped away from the church, I spent years coming to terms with concepts of infinity and the finite span we live in.

@Scribblehatch hey you, calm down

The only detail you know about an atheist is lack of belief in a deity.

Agreec.

"This animal... has eyes."

i think you are confused

which is why "militant atheist" has value

Militant atheist is specific, like radical Islam

Whoa fuck that vicious animal.

Eyes?!

What kinda fuckin beast has eyes.

Yeah, I think it can be a useful term. You can be anti-theistic without being militant about it.

Belief in nothing, by the way, is nihilism.

And fuck nihilists.

Back to topic:
The Important thing is what the Religion is about and for.

They're shit.

If you distinguish the atheists who go around harassing anyone wearing a cross or a sickle and star from the ones who just let everyone live in peace, you can start distinguishing the many forms of atheists.

If it is World Domination, could we agree that that's a bad thing?

Militant Nihlism is also a problem

I say you need to have a philosophy and I stand by that.

Nihilism is against me.

I don't think people are aguing against that.

What if the world we're dominating is mars? Because I'd like to dominate that

Nihilism is merely the rejection of codified ethics systems, such that the individual is responsible for their own moral code and goals

I'm sick of people using atheism as shorthand for nihilism.

@RyeNorth did argue against that or at least tried.
That it doesn't matter if a Religion is for world domination or a positive change.

i dont think most people are arguing that much against you scribble i just don't think all the posts posted are directed at you

It happens **all the fucking time.**

and your being a bit 69AAAAA

You know which world I want to dominate? Sex-world

Atheists get stuck with the bill that nihilists ran up.
