Members of the atheistic faith are working hard to make proselytes on college campuses. It used to be that this activity came only from the teachers and not the students.

It just the latest infants learning to cuss to shock their elders fad.

Since atheism has no “there” there, this too shall pass.

About the only change here is that the atheists are getting better press releases. In typical secular universities, religious students have long been a small minority. Most students are less religious because they are too busy doing other things.

But just like few of the many students that binge drink in college become alcoholics, when students graduate, get married and have children, the atheism goes out the window and they return to their faith.

Importantly, students from conservative faiths are a lot more likely to return to their faith than are those from trendy liberal faiths.

anti-believers are not non-believers

These are not atheists or heather, these are haters. Desensitizing the country and ramping up the hate for believers. Just wait for the attacks to increase.

Call them haters at every given opportunity.

Invoke hate speech laws.

Your children’s lives will depend on it. Unless you want to be wiped out like jews in Europe

There are only good and evil people in this world. Good or evil is within the person, and it is found in both the religious and non religious believers. Whether the person worships a spiritual entity or not is not the way to judge them as a good or evil person. Every individual has a right to worship or not to worship, and be happy with the outcome whether it is a road to the land of milk and honey, 72 virgins or just lights out. Is life a rehearsal for something else or is it all you are going to get? (Rhet.)

But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God— 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people. 6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over gullible women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to come to a knowledge of the truth.

2 Timothy 3: 1-7

...“de-baptism” ceremonies...

That is something I have never even considered. Frightening from a Christian perspective. A literal in-your-face denial of your faith in the strongest terms possible.

This is not atheism.

If you do not believe in religion or in a god you do not need to “de-baptize” yourself or anyone else. However, if you DO believe in God and you specifically want to spit on Him then you might do something like this.

If you don’t believe, there is nothing to undo. So why?

The ramifications for the spiritual and mental health of these poor people is terrifying.

They might as well be specifically devil worshipping because they are not “abstaining” from belief they are assaulting and trying to “undo” it.

These people make me sick. The whole idea of it all. Campaigning to coerce people into losing faith. What is the result of losing one’s faith, of becoming an atheist? Is your life improved? No. In fact, it become meaningless. Who would want to spread that? Sick people, that’s who.

**“de-baptism” ceremonies**

No such thing. Once a person is baptized — they are baptized.

In the Catholic Church a mark is left on the person’s soul. This also happens in the Sacraments of Confirmation and Holy Orders also.

Athiesm is a religion. From my experience with most of them, they are the most doctrinal and dogmatic of them all.

Agnostics on the other hand, I can respect. There's a difference.

they don’t seem to be preaching anything, just making fun of Christians.

“I don’t think it’s unfair to say that groups like Cru are our cultural opponents,” says Galef at SSA. “It comes down to which values we’re promoting. We are promoting values of critical thinking and acceptance.”

I think it's fair to say that the quote above shows that the only reason for the existence of these quotes is to publicly show their hatred of God, religion, and religious people.
