After just seeing so many articles of people being sad I really just have to say the pope was an asshole. You don’t even have to do good research to see that this guy and his administration was still hiding pedophiles, hating gay people, and generally being a jerk all while pretending he was better than everyone else. The only thing he did was say he loved everyone and be a nice guy on camera which literally anyone could pretend to do. Meanwhile his administration was just more of the same shit. Just creating some counterpoint to the nonsense narrative I keep seeing.
“militant anti theist” I think the world you’re looking for si “fanatic atheists” bro lmao, I’m sure that’s what your call ‘militant theists’.
There is a difference between atheism and anti-theism.
I am an atheist, which means I don’t accept the proposition of the existence of a god as true.
I am a strong or gnostic atheist, which means I am convinced that the answer to the question if a god exists is knowable and that the answer is no, no god exists.
I am an anti-theist, which means I am convinced that theism (the unfoundrd, superstitious belief in a god) is a bad influence on the human civilisation.
I am a militant anti-theist, in that I feel I have to vigorously defend the scientific and civilizational accomplishments of my society against the ever present encroachment of superstition in the form of theism that wants to press its bad and wrong morals and ethics on my community.
Most atheists aren’t anti-theists.
