Comments on: Atheism is Dangerous, Pt. 2 http://godhatesfraggles.net/2008/08/09/atheism-is-dangerous-pt-2/ Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.

So babies, children, indigenous people with no metaphysical world view, non-human animals, and the invalid are all atheists (along with those who reject theistic beliefs consciously). Am I to believe that I (one who rejects theistic beliefs consciously) have the same political ideology as an invalid? As a man from Africa who has no concept of the universe and the world beyond his territory? Okay I'm making one hell of a strawman argument but it's to illustrate the point that atheism strictly has no ideology. Even us who 'reject theistic beliefs consciously' have no common ideology. You can't categorize us and we have no 'leader' to blame. You'll have to find your solutions to theodicy (hint: free will) elsewhere. An atheist is defined as a person lacking in theistic beliefs.

It seems that, according to these guys, a lack of invisible guidance can only lead to suffering. Barring of course such fruity things as the subjugation of women, murder of homosexuals, repression of scientific advancement and mass-murder of different nations due to divine real-estate brokering. But then again God says that's OK so rock on sexism, homophobia, ignorance and genocide; Rock on!
