[This comment is from a Christian troll who masqueraded as a racist atheist ("White Power Atheist") in order to make atheists look evil.]
Well, I guess I'm out! Last comments on your blog will be entirely different since I'm a black believer. Their is a very good reason why there are so little Black atheists. Social Darwinistic, Eugenic bastards like Richard Lynn who use the theory of evolution as a weapon to spread hate. If you actually looked, you would find many atheists that are just as bad as KKK and Xtian Nazis. The ideals of Darwinism & Eugenics combined were employed by Hitler, "the architects of apartheid" and everyone that colonized Africa.
I"M OUT!!!

The argument is illogical.
A small segment of atheists are racist = don't be an atheist.
Yet by his own admission, a small segment of Christians are racist.....
I do not doubt that there are racist athiests.
Nor do I doubt that there are racist christians and muslims.
Even bhuddists. One only has to look up "racism in Japan" to appreciat this.
Fact is, we're all a bit tribalistic. Anyone who says they're not racist is lying. We have to use our common sense to overcome our tribal instincts. We're better than what "god" gave us.
Learn to share.
Actually, most of Japan is Shintoist.
I'm glad to know I don't exist, what with being black (well, part black) and an atheist. I'm even handicapped!
In my part of the world the more Christian you are the more racist you are. 52 years in central Ontario.
Moderate Christians and Non-believers, at least 80% whitebread European stock.
I'm sure in the south (where religion has a stronger power base) some become atheist but still carry all that hate for the "others" they were told so many stories about. Then pass it on to their Atheist children.
But God knows no-one can hate as much as a fundiefuck
Yeah, you can find plenty of atheists doing all sorts of crimes. Atheists are humans like everyone else, and some are good, some are bad. But you'll very seldom (persecution of Orthodox Christians in Soviet Russia is one example, and it was a very small part of the crimes of that government) find any of those crimes done for or because of atheism. How man people have murdered in the name of God?
you would find many atheists that are just as bad as KKK and Xtian Nazis.
Oh? Citation needed. Assuming that this were true, who's to say they aren't actually deceitful Christians in disguise (especially if they're on the internet)? Exhibit A: You.
@Siberia:
You're half right. Shinto is indeed the native religion of Japan, but Buddhism long ago spread to the region as well, and the two blended together enough that the majority religion was a sort of Buddist/Shinto mix. However, in recent years it has become largely secularized--no Japanese politician today would dream of trying to pull a stunt like those often employed by U.S. Republicans (e.g., trying to get the Ten Commandments displayed in a courthouse). See also Wikipedia.
As for you, OP... ah, just listen to Fanatic-Templar.
@ arcturus,
tribalistic yes but not necessarily racist since different people develop their identities and self-image differently. A person might give no importance to race and lots of importance to other identity categories (gender, subcultures, etc)
Hahaha, quoted when he's in troll-mode, quoted when he's not. WPA just can't win.
And as for the "big reveal"? Yeah, buddy. We knew. We all knew. Your disguise was about as transparent as the Emperor's Clothes.
"The ideals of Darwinism & Eugenics combined were employed by Hitler, "the architects of apartheid" and everyone that colonized Africa. "
Hitler's Table Talk, July 25, l942:
'From where do we get the right to believe, that from the
very beginning Man was not what he is today? Looking at
Nature tells us, that in the realm of plants and animals
changes and developments happen. But nowhere inside a
kind shows such a development as the breadth of the jump,
as Man must supposedly have made, if he has
developed from an ape-like state to what he is today.'
"I"M OUT!!!"
AS AN IDIOT!!!!!
I accept that there may be racist atheists out there. But one does not have to be racist to be an atheist. That would be about the same as claiming that all Christians are racists because the KKK and Christian neo-Nazis are racist. Not true, but I do believe that you do have to be Christian to join the KKK, as they do incorporate the importance of Christianity in their rituals.
Nice little job of trolling there... not. I thought that Christians weren't supposed to lie? I guess lying for Jesus is OK, though...
Okay, then answer me a few questions:
How many wars were started in the name of Darwin?
How many cities were bombed by "evolutionist"?
How many towers were destroyed for evolution?
An Atheist group with the numbers of the KKK, Aryan Nation or even Skinheads would scare the Hell outta you lot.
Since we're not clanish (except within other interests) it's unlikely. Sites like FSTDT contain the largest association I know of and it's a loose-affiliation with no dogma.
"I"M OUT!!!"
Indeed. Outed as the lying, hypocritical fundie you truly are.
And of course lying & hypocrisy knows no racial bounds.
Hypocrisy, thy name is Fundie.
"If you actually looked"
Yes, some Atheists are bastards, not believing in Gods doesn't make you a racist but doesn't stop you in any way.
I could hate any race, any time, on a whim, for a laugh or thrill. Atheists can be jerks, there's nothing stopping them from that. I'll even give you Christopher Hitchens is a jerk, a rude, uncomprimising, direct and inconsiderate jerk. I love him, we need these guys, someones got to be more direct. They call Dawkins arrogant, Well, arrogant Creationists do.
Hold on, first you call the Nazis Christian (good job on that, no sarcasm there) and then in the very next line, you call them Darwinist?
... fundies around the US will have to punch you in the face for that one, troll.
Hitler wasn't much for NATURAL selection. He wanted to do the selection himself. The apartheid in South Africa and Israel aren't using any NATURAL selection either, it was/is mostly done with imprisonment, torture and/or murder. There are no ideals in evolution, it's only a natural process, as mundane and observable as photosynthesis.
The colonization of Africa began centuries before Mr Darwin was even born, and was often done with the excuse of "bringing Christ to the savages".
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
