Not all atheists are statists.

But indeed most statists are atheists.


Then he should have asked what statism has done for us lately. Using the term "atheist" and following it up in the fashion above is an implication that all atheists are statists. Even the title of the article is loaded; implying that "atheism" is supposed to do anything for "us".

You mean people have agendas on FR ;-)

I've got two friends who are atheists, I'm going to have to ask them monday why haven't they done anything for me, starting with my yard.

The newspaper gave the title to his guest editorial. If you desire to critique the content, fine. But don't criticize him for the title.

And of course, I simply posted it as titled, as per FR guidelines. (I like the headline, of course. It garnered the desired effect.)
