[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolutely atheist is a religion that more than just about any other works to imporse their religion upon other. They prosthelytize and evangelize more than most religions. They work tirelessly to establish atheism as the unofficial state religion.

They are one of the worst religions right now in this country.

I think you may simply be missing the obvious.

When you drive anywhere, how many churches do you see with a criucifix prominently displayed, as well as a Bible quote on the signboard in front? What about temples and mosques? Now, how many "atheist meeting spaces" do you see? I'm betting the answer is zero.

How many billboards taking about "Truth" or advertising other aspects of Christianity? Along a stretch of highway near my house there are three. No atheist billboards, though. How often do you hear things on the radio like those "Not a sermon, just a thought," bits from the McLean Bible Church? How many radio and tv stations carry religious programming? How many carry explicitly "atheist" programming?

How often do people ring your doorbell asking to talk about atheism? No one's ever done that to me, but the Jehovah's Witnesses come though about every 6 weeks, and the Mormons come through about twice a year.

How often do people you know talk about going to church? How often do you hear people ask, "What church do you attend?" How often do you hear atheists say, "Last Sunday when I was actively exercising my lack of belief in God by doing (something other than going to church)..."?

Daily life in the US includes constant implicit and explicit support for religion and proselytizing for it. It's just so embedded in the fabric of life that you don't notice it unless you think about it.
