Not all athiest are leftist and not all athiest think religion is bad, however, an athiest gets tired of religious folks, just like homosexuals, pushing their beliefs on people that don’t care to listen to them. Contrary to popular belief, many athiest have high moral standards and compasion towards their fellow human beings.Religion should be taught at home or in your church, not in a public school.All religions are cults to one degree or another, hence the word culture.Those that holler the loudest about their religion being the true way are usually the ones that have a deep conflict about their faith.Faith is just what it says, a belief in something that can never be proven or disproven other than by your belief. If you believe the bible then that is YOUR proof,don’t expect a non believer to accept your idea of the truth.
All buses are used to one degree or another, hence the word use.
I'd hate to see your take on the etymology of "Schwarzenegger."
Agree completely.
If atheism is true then there is no such thing as "moral standards" because there is no objective basis for morals or "right and wrong". There is only personal preference and social convention, both of which are relative and purely subjective. Without God the normative becomes the personal.

Interesting juxtaposition there -- since you compared religious people to proselytizing homosexuals.
One of the stock claims of the homosexuals is that "rampant homophobia is the attempted self-suppression of the homophobe's own latent homosexual impulses."
In other words, the more one rails against queers, the more likely one is to *be* queer.
And I see that you are hollering the loudest about your LACK of faith: and comparing believers to homosexuals.
It's enough to make me wonder if you used to be an altar boy, or something. ;-)
Seriously, though, the flaw in your argument is simply that you implicitly assume "disbelief" is "more likely" to be true than belief.
But there are false negatives as well as false positives: and you haven't yet explained why you are so much more concerned about one type of error than another.
Cheers!
