Just so everyone knows, the maker of the video is themselves an atheist.

The only section of reddit I've ever frequented is the TIFU (Today I Fucked Up) subreddit.
History is full of maniacs, my friend, men and women of intelect, highly perceptive individuals, who's brilliant minds know neither restraint nor taboo. Such notions are the devils we must slay for the edification of pony-kind. Even if said edification means violating the rules of decency, society, and rightousness itself.

r/atheism is full of exactly the kind of pretentious anti-theists that give validation to the "militant atheist" stereotype. They are one of the reasons I'm an agnostic. The agnostics seem to be the only philosophical group (aside from perhaps the Buddhists) without a significant vocal minority of douchenozzles.

There are a lot of atheist assholes, but I don't see why that would be a reason to be agnostic. The truth of a philosophical proposition is usually unrelated to the personality of the people who subscribe to it.

And there's your problem. 4chan, Reddit, and their imageboard ilk are the last places to go to for useful and intelligent discussion. I stopped by /tg/ every now and then for DnD advice, but when the "Have you tried not playing DnD?" comments came in, into the trash it went.
I'm in science to discover and analyze God's wonderful universe, not gripe about how people don't like God.  I believe the creation/evolution debate is a waste of Christian brains (we have them, believe it or not) that could be better spent on making actual things.

Favorite philosophers (out of the ones I've personally read): Jesus, Solomon, Marcus Aurelius, Immanuel Kant

Quote from: Jordan Duram
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

Cute cartoon, but actually, China always gets it's own long, often exclusive, visit from the US president, exactly because they are so important in the scheme of things in the world.

I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

Second to last. I'm afraid FQA takes the cake for consistently least knowledgeable discussion participants.

Reddit may be brave, but they have r/math.

So basically r/atheist is an atheist troll board?

Meh, feels fairly bland and overly dramatic.
I don't like cartoons where the only statement is "Bad thing is bad."

At least we can rely on you to enlighten us.

I'm more partial to the Klan hood/hat
