I think a lot of groups don’t like to acknowledge their existence depends on people different from themselves carrying the water to keep society afloat so they can survive and thrive. This is the case with atheists living on the legacy of a Christian nation which wants to save them rather than execute them, with welfare recipients depending on the existence of overtaxed workers still being willing to work, with airport and intersection beggars depending on workers to give them their spare change, with illegals depending of Americans honoring their laws and giving them rights, with socialists nations depending on a capitalist nation to defend them in the international arena, with anarchists living in the basements of their bourgoisie parents. They bite the hand that feeds them and will someday wonder what happened that the hands are no longer there to be bitten. Atheists in particular are guilty of living on the legacy of God-fearing, God-loving society and thinking they created the benevolent society.

On another note, I read recently the truism that those who have tried to create a heaven on earth without God have only managed to create a hell on earth.

You nailed it. Revisionism shouldn't have that kind of power, but it does.

The 20th century had more atheists than any previous time in history. Not coincidentally, more people were killed by governments than any other century - upwards of 200 million. That these govts were communist/aetheist is not a coincidence.

Communism is THE evil empire.
