It’s never been more important to acknowledge nonreligious and non-Christian veterans — including the proverbial “atheists in foxholes” — given the Pentagon’s recent attacks on the constitutional separation between religion and government. ffrf.us/4p7Si66

There are no shortcuts to being a good person, least of all "right belief" (including when that "right" belief is nonbelief).
Pluralism is the lifeblood of democracy. Get over yourselves, antitheists, and start prioritizing people's values and actions over their beliefs.

Atheism is not a magic cure-all for anything, and prosteletizing is not welcome in my mentions.

Antitheists somehow never choose to blindly push toxic myths from other religions. It's always just Christian myths.
If that were my argument, I expect I'd have said something like that. You didn't invoke Amalek. You invited Christian myths about the Jewish Temple. If you'd like me to yell at you about pushing, say, harmful Zionist myths, go post about the obligation to destroy Amalek, and I'll be along shortly.

Most "secularist antitheists" only ever obsess over Christianity and Islam when it comes to the Abrahamic faiths. It's quite telling.
Sam Harris and his ilk, for example.

not content with merely repeating Christian antisemitism and shitting on Jews who ask them to stop, antitheists also hold desperately to presuppositionalism But Make It Rationalist

James, we are WAY beyond that point where calm, cool decency is any kind of option.
The only way forward now is to tackle it head on.

Fucking evangelical antitheists. Every damn time. With what and with whom do you think you’re having an argument? I’ve forgotten more about the Documentary Hypothesis than you’ll ever hope to know.

Er, most academics of that time and place do believe Jesus existed. Not that he was the literal son of a deity, but that he existed.
In any case, antitheists are tiresome people who should take a comparative-religion course and maybe a sociology course as well.

They said “atheist proselytizers” which is the same thing as antitheists.

I agree that most atheists aren’t like that. But this thread is about the antitheists who do harass strangers on the internet.

and while *many* atheists, possibly most, aren't part of any organization, Jews are in contrast part of several often-contradictory organizations we put extremely variable trust in
my point being this is somehow never cause for antitheists to leave any of *us* alone

Atheists like antitheists who think they know everything about organized religion, when in reality their basis for it is entirely Christian centric, and advocate for antisemitism, islamophobia, and discrimination against other religions thinking they all have the same societal power as the church

some of the worst shit I see is from antitheists hassling Jews because they refuse to believe every religion/denom doesn't operate like the worst, most authoritarian strains of Christianity.
Hey, I'm trying to learn more about toxicity on Bluesky. How often do you see toxicity on here? Where in the app do you see it?

My known interactions with antitheists have been online only, to the best of my knowledge. A good friend of mine is an atheist and member of the Satanic temple, and two other friends that I am so close with that I consider them sisters are Jewish. In mixed belief company I find religion only…

I love antitheists who think understanding the context they're having a conversation in would somehow make them less informed (this is all antitheists, love y'all)

Because Jews aren't a proselytizing religion you don't really see the OTD folks becoming evangelical antitheists the way that exvangelicals often will, but you *do* see some people who were raised hardcore Zionist bring that same shout everyone down energy to their anti-Zionism, which is interesting
