I take atheists over Muslims any day. Atheists only have a vitriolic tongue, no more. None of the atheists persecute Christians actively as the Muslims do.

Maybe not in recent years, but how do you explain the history of Communist countries?

You forgot all about Joe Stalin didn't you?

Or do you want US to forget about him?

Ummm... Let’s see, the French Revolution, the Mexican Revolution, the Russian Revolution,... and that’s not even to speak of nihilism!

Atheism is a diverse ideology, and it would be unfair to suggest any atheist holds beliefs like those of atheists Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Ho Chi Minh, or nihilists Hitler, Napoleon, etc.

But atheism doesn’t necessarily value the human being at all. Many works by “peaceable” atheists are quite horrifying in what they would justify (Ayn Rand’s disdain for Eddie, who, if real, would be the true hero of “Atlast Shrugged” is as dehumanizing as “The Turner Diaries”; Or just try reading through an Utilitarian author!)
