About 80% of atheists are pure socialist/communist/collectivists, in the US, Muslims vote as a block democratic.

Therefore (not that the PEW foundation is unbiased, they are very biased) correlation does not prove causation.

LOL....some athiests are not.  For example, those who lean toward Ayn Rand may be athiests who are pure capitalists.   And I've certainly met some, let's say from Muslim origins, whom I respect highly.  But they weren't exactly, "Muslim"....

Those who lean toward Ayn Rand are the objectivists, which is kind of cultish, it's not about capitalism...

I believe the vast majority of people in this forum are atheist and/or anti-theist not only because of education/skepticism but also because of anti-authoritarianism, and I don't see many commies around. Smiley

As best as I know I would generally agree with your comments.  Although I guess you could sort of say that people posting here from communist countries are, well, communists.  But that doesn't mean much about their attitudes and beliefs, which is this question.

Capitalism is the economic lynch pin of Objectivism because in its laissez faire form, it's the ultimate respect and morality that rewards individual rights and the exercising thereof to one's fullest potential. According to Rand, a right is a moral principle defining and sanctioning man's freedom of action in a social context. Labor ownership is a corollary of one's basic right to life. That said, I have no comment nor care about this forum's makeup of religion or lack thereof.

Atheism doesn't mean that you are Republican or Democrat, pro-Choice or pro-Life or anything else...
Atheism means that each individual is able to think for himself and act accordingly.

Idk where came that idea that atheists are Communists. Communists are atheists, the inverse can be true or not.

I'm a conservative atheist, I personally find the irrationality and blind beliefs of organized religion with Keynesian tax & spend economics go together like bread and butter.

Ever been to a meeting of atheists?  In large part they are pro Clinton, pro Obama, pro socialist anything, pro Marxist, etc.  Rather ridiculous and boring actually.

Certainly doesn't mean one is equal to the other.

You got it wrong, you didn't went to an Atheist meeting, you went to a Communist meeting, who happens to be also atheists.
You can't have atheist meetings, because there's no mass, no church, no associations, no nothing, Just plain people going around their business and not caring about worshiping any imaginary friend.

American christians are different from our christians and so the atheists...

There are a lot of atheist meetings in the US because they are an ostracized minority and need to stay together.

Spendulus, every time I have a meeting it's an "atheist meeting", I know very few believers in my generation/age...

And communists are great persons, and those I know a lot. Smiley

Ever been to a meeting of atheists?  In large part they are pro Clinton, pro Obama, pro socialist anything, pro Marxist, etc. 

Really? lol that's one huuuge generalization you've made there.

Not really sure why athiests would sit down and have a meeting, maybe they'll just talk about the weather?  Grin

Certainly doesn't mean one is equal to the other.

You got it wrong, you didn't went to an Atheist meeting, you went to a Communist meeting, who happens to be also atheists.
You can't have atheist meetings, because there's no mass, no church, no associations, no nothing, Just plain people going around their business and not caring about worshiping any imaginary friend.

You most certainly can have an Atheist organization.

It's just Non-Prophet.

As you can have a Bitcoin organization, a Litecoin organization, a housewives who loves Tupperware organization... but there is no "Central Book" or "Common doctrine" to Atheism, so those are just isolated groups representing nothing but themselves.

Bullshit!

Quote
Republicans and Republican leaners view atheists and Muslims much more negatively than they view other religious groups.

Especially since atheism is not a religion: to give a brilliant quote, "Atheism is a religion in much the same way as not collecting stamps is a hobby"

“Dark times lie ahead of us and there will be a time when we must choose between what is easy and what is right.”
“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”
“It is important to fight and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then can evil be kept at bay, though never quite eradicated.”

True, except when it is pursued with religious fervor, has the trappings and characteristics of religion, and when the Non-Deity is piously worshipped.
