I have met more than a few atheists who spit and sprew their words with the same passionate conviction of any old school, hate-filled, Baptist preacher.
.
Zealot Atheist:
The Deeply religious
that deny their own brand of blind faith
even exists!

I have met more than a few atheists who spit and sprew their words with the same passionate conviction of any old school, hate-filled, Baptist preacher.
.
.
(Note:)
(NOT all Baptist preachers teach hate!)
(This is only used as a descriptive simile!)
..
It seems like they have just swapped one form of blind faith for another.
.
.
Upon reading the above
.
Some have accused me of defending paedophile priest,
.
Some have accused me of,
Defending the hypocrisy of churches that sit on riches while other starve and die of thirst!
.
Some think that defending the right to worship a faith is the same as being complicit to homophobia or brutal misogyny
.
You should know that is NOT what I meant...
.
Crime is still Crime.
.
Immorality is still Immorality.
.
And Intolerance is still Intolerance.
.
.
There is plenty of religious people who do not do or support these heinous things!
.
While, worldwide, statistically, there are also bound to be some Atheist who does!
.
.
I am not excusing base human evil!
.
.
But I do support the right to follow a faith if a person chooses.
.
.
I am not defending religion!
BUT
I am defending the right to be religious!
.
The same way I would defend your right to be an atheist if I was talking to a religious person.
.
I am not attacking atheism!
I am attacking any form of religious intolerance!
.
.
If you start telling people "

If you start telling people "
.
“YOU CAN NOT BELIEVE WHAT YOU WANT!"
.
.
“YOU ARE EITHER AN ATHEIST OR YOU ARE LESSER PERSON!”
.
Then that is the very same as any religious zealot attacking another religion.
.
.
You either believe in human freedoms of you don't.
.
I would never want to see yet another Communist Purge of all faiths,
.
.
Intolerance is the licence that people give themselves to be shit to each other.
.
What half arses excuse they choose to be intolerant of, never really matters!
.
An innocents death is still an innocents death.
.
A fellow human being still becomes mere meat.
.
.
I have little faith in humanity.
.
But I have extrapolated the common themes for all our collective mistakes.
.
If we could stop each of those same common factors from happening then history just might stop repeating itself constantly, forever!
.
.
If you are an Atheist?
Are you as intolerant of religious people as some of them are to each other?
.
If you are an Atheist?
Do you refuse point blank to have any religious friends?
.

Fear,

Hatred

(But only "Might"!)

If so,
Then like looking through the window at Napoleon’s final feast in the book ‘Animal Farm’,
.
I look at you and then I look at the religious intolerant zealots,
.
Feasting together at the same banquet of Hate,
.
And I find it hard to see a difference.
.
.
Maybe the above comment hit a little bit too close to home for you?
.
.
If so,
Instead at being angry at me,
Instead, ask yourself why?
