During a presentation in 2015 at a workshop held at the University of Texas, “Breaking New Ground in the Science-Religion Dialogue,” Gervais revealed the results of a survey he conducted that found “even atheists believe that atheists are more likely to to perpetrate morally repugnant acts.”

atheists are consumers of dogma. They have no evidence there is no God and look really stupid trying to profess singularity in thought. Morons all.

Virtually every atheist I have ever known has been a loud-mouthed bully. They are not persecuted. They are the persecutors.

Atheist bloggers in Pakistan being routinely murdered by knife wielding Muslim mobs while police do nothing ARE persecuted.
In the West, they are prosecuting the Christians.

Atheists are the children of Marx, and the enemies of America.

There is something of a paradox here. Muslims are supposed to afford God-believing “People of the Book” the courtesy of converting to Islam before attacking them. But atheists are afforded no such grace.

Atheists are one of the biggest targets for Islam, right up there with homosexuals and pagans. Yet those atheists who are killed are mostly ex-Muslims who now avow atheism.

So why haven’t Islamists systematically targeted atheists? In much of the west, atheists are often very open about it, which you would think would paint a big target on their back. They even hold mass meetings.

This means greatly increased chances of concentration camps and pogroms.

Knowing how people can be sometimes, I have to agree.

Never met an atheist I didn’t dislike.

They like to try to pass off irritation as persecution.
