Re: Atheism vs. Antitheism
[ QUOTE ]
Many of you so called atheists are really antitheists.
An antitheist would be someone that believes there is no god and doesn't want anyone else to believe in god either, thus introducing arguement upon arguement trying to convince the theists that they are wrong.

I believe this is wrong. I think many 2p2ers "do not believe in God", not "believe there is no God"
Also, just a thought on your question:
"I believe in gravity. I believe all macroscopic objects near the earth's surface will fall towards the earth. I believe anyone who doesnt agree with me is wrong"
"I believe in Jesus Christ. I believe he is the son of God, born of a virgin, and His body was taken to heaven after he died. I believe anyone who doesnt believe this is wrong, and will be punished in hell"
Do you believe the first is comparable to the second? If not, do you concede that some statements in the form "I believe X, and argue that anyone who disagrees is wrong" might not be created equal?
