[QUOTE=prostock69;702273]I'm an Anti-theist. I can't stand religion of any kind. I wish it were eradicated off the face of this earth. It's a disease that takes advantage of the disenfranchised and in most cases, the most uneducated and superstitious. However, is this the place to be having this discussion?QUOTE]

So if I understand this correctly, most religious people are depriving, stupid and unlucky? All religion eradicated? Strong words friend. Lets check the numbers according to wikipedia (by no means the definitive, but its quick!) almost 6.7 billion people on earth. Just the 4 major religions Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism on the low end make up over 4.5 billion of that population. that leaves 2.2 billion for the other smaller religions. 1 billion being secularism or atheism, antitheism is the same as both. IMO the non belief of God or gods is still a belief in something, classifying as a religion. There would be no one left. If a Christian were to say "eradicate all others that have not accepted Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour" that would be considered hate speech. But since an antitheist said something to that effect, its freedom of speech, to which everyone is entitled.

Please don't be a stone all your life.
I pray the truth finds you quickly.
