Atheism
I'm not sure about atheists. I wish there was a simple term meaning "non-militant atheist". Atheists seem to be so full of rage, and understandably so. It is amazing how much power Christians have over the lives of others. I grew up Southern Baptist and I remember "whoa is me" sermons where the pastor claimed that Christianity had lost any importance in social life. Now that I'm on the outside it is amazing how much deception was in that message.
Atheists seem to proselytize more than Southern Baptists do. I read about an atheistic ad campaign on London buses. Propaganda exists too. Today I read the story about Bill Nye, The Science Guy, who got booed in Waco, Texas. The stories were slanted. The stated that the audience booed Nye because he said the moon did not generate its own light, when in fact they booed him because he said that the Bible was incorrect. Also there was no mention that the Nye probably knew exactly what he was provoking.
