[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the reason somebody is bumping ancient Christian-bashing threads to bury this thread about atheism’s sexual abuse problems?[/quote]

Except you haven’t really proven your case there exists atheist sexual abuse problems. Also, nambla isn’t “for atheists” like the church is for “the religious”.

Also, atheists aren’t a “religion”. I think you read too much conservative media. I’ve seen the conservative articles that try to frame atheism as a religion, so they sort of better categorize it, label it and discredit it, the same way people can about organized religion. Except atheists aren’t a monolithic block like say the Catholic Church.

They’re just people who don’t believe in one of the thousands of different mainstream religions. So, no, dawkins, harris, nambla, are not good examples of people who “lead” atheism because there is no set leader like there is a pope for organized religion. You can’t pin it down so easily and it frustrates you. Atheists don’t care about your religion. They just want to be left alone from it. Organized religion, or at least many of them, have shown to harbor sexually repressed perverts. You can’t say the same about atheism because there is no repression. There are no dogmatic ideals that dictate that be “pious” and not have sex with another human like the church. That repression of sexuality leads to perversion as the multitudes of reports show.[/quote]

Atheists like Silverman do run atheist orgs, and Dawkins and Harris are thought leaders who sell millions of books and attract many thousands of listeners to their lectures and online videos. You can’t possibly argue they have no influence. You just can’t hide behind, “hey, they don’t represent a ‘religion’ and they don’t run actual churches, so we can ignore them.”

Also, atheists are on DCUM every hour of the day proselytizing for atheism and arguing with people of faith. If you guys didn’t proselytize, you’d have no reason to be here. [/quote]
