*Shower Thoughts* It's 2025 and I have to try and convince privileged and purportedly educated people that vaccines work, slavery is bad and there is no hard evidence for any deity. Consider my ghast flabbered.

An eminently sensible post. Shame some of the comments aren’t.

If I had said something unfactual then they might have something to complain about. Some folks are allergic to facts. I notice they make no comment about the rest of the post...

You forgot, the debate over if the moon landing happened. Oh and whether or not WW2 actually happened and so many people were killed.

Atheists mention atheism every chance they get. It's a cry for affirmation. Affirmation falsely bolsters the facade of their condescending certainty. It holds at arm's length the fact that their condescension masks their inferiority complex and that they have no confidence in their certainty.

Atheism is a religious conviction. Why does somebody else's religious conviction seem condescending to you, just because they are certain about it?

Why? The proselytizing. And it's not a religious conviction, its the absence of one.

I'd say it's conviction regarding religion, so it's a religious conviction. But...the proselytizing? Christians....you know...get into that a little bit.

This has nothing to do with Christian proselytizing, which i take it you enjoy. And you're wrong. Your logic is faulty.

I'm wrong about what? I was just asking you why you feel like somebody having a religious conviction (that I'm guessing is different from yours) is condescending. I know some people can be condescending, but I think we all should respect each other convictions.

No one cares what you think. You're wasting my time.
