[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was raised to go to Baptist church with my grandparents, but gently and swiftly stopped going in my early teens. I have routinely gone to Passover and temple with my closest friend who is jewish. Currently consider myself a secular humanist rather than atheist. Militant atheism has just as bad a connotation as evangelical Christians.[/quote] Militant anything has a bad connotation. It suggests taking up arms for your cause -- something people referred to as militant atheists (e.g. Dawkins, Hitchens) have never done or encouraged anyone else to do. They simply talk forcefully - like "Militant feminists" did. Atheism just means lack of believe in gods.[/quote] Yes I know, I have considered myself an atheist for many years. Sorry, I didn't mean that all atheists are militant but a lot are. I am mainly a humanist due to my belief in a strong moral compass. [/quote]
