[quote=Steve Zara]I propose a new strident atheism. No playing the games of theists. No concessions. No talk of evidence that can change minds, when their beliefs are deliberately placed beyond logic, beyond evidence. Let's not get taken in by the fraud of religion. Let's not play their shell-game.[/quote]

Definitely an avenue of attack. You take that one. I'll bomb the Vatican. (Feck, we meet at Milan, okay?)

me too. how about we send out some angry letters. or maybe we should make some pamphlets to promote rationalism, but make them really condescending and sarcastic.

We just get them to declare a jihad against the US, then they will be targeted by Homeland Security.

Those that refuse will be buried up to their necks in sulphur.

Simple, we just declare the US an atheist nation. The fuckers will believe it because they always believe the worst. Even if it's denied by the President they won't believe him, they don't like Muslims.

Madelyn Murray O'Hair was a militant atheist, and went from being one of the most influential people in the country with Murray v Curlett to being a bit of a joke due to her seeming inability to respond to sincere religious belief with anything but sneers and insults.

If one is espousing a belief system based upon reason and intelligence, then doing so with an angry, militant stance is counterproductive.
