Re: Is Neo-Atheism The Way to Go? [Poll]
Maybe one or two people in this thread understand the profound damage religious fundamentalists do to their children.
Fundamentalist religion is poison, pure and simple. So, yes, we need more neo-atheists, if only [Daily Show]for the children.[/Daily Show]

Re: Is Neo-Atheism The Way to Go? [Poll]
We should treat people with traditional religious beliefs in the same way we treat people with traditional racist beliefs.
That doesn't exclude being civil, but it does include being vocal and proactively intolerant. Does anyone argue that it is uncivil to promote neo-a-racism in the deep south?

[/ QUOTE ] Alex, you've hit upon the key word that for some reason escaped me in this thread. "Intolerant". We should be intolerant to stupid beliefs without fear of hurting someone's sensibilities.
