From another thread: So how many atheists here have been persecuted, harassed or beaten up? Share your stories
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrimination_against_atheists Atheists persecuted in Islamic societies? Why am I not surprised?
Why restrict your poll to atheists? How many theists here have been persecuted, harassed or beaten up? How many people here have been persecuted, harassed or beaten up?
Harassed. What do you mean by persecuted ? Being judged ? Edit: Shall we switch avatars ? Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I am constantly harassed by theists who come to my home trying to peddle their snakeoil. It doesn't matter if you tell them not to return, but they do anyways. Only a court restraining order will suffice. I am constantly persecuted by theists who demand we respect their religions, who force their beliefs on society, laws, schools and government and demand we run the world based on their ancient myths and superstitions. I am constantly beaten up, financially, when I'm forced to pay property and revenue taxes, due to the fact religious institutions are tax-free. Want more?
Isn't Russia a country where 1, 2 and 3 as you mentioned above do not happen? No evangelists knocking at the door, no demand to respect religions, no tax free religious institutions? Why would you leave such a veritable paradise?
Then maybe its time you did. You'll be safe from religious persecution. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
And if your so fucking pissed off at the US, then maybe it's about time you go back to India, and deal with the myriad of problems you love to ignore.
Tch tch. This thread is about you. If you're so pissed off [and persecuted] by the religious, why aren't you living in an anti-religion state?
If you're so pissed off with the US, why aren't you living in an Islamic state? Clearly, this thread is more about you and your intellectual dishonesty.
Its all dar al-islam according to Buffalo. But again, this thread is about the persecuted atheist. Not me. So why aren't you living in an anti-religion state where ACM flourishes and the religious are persecuted instead of you? Why would you continue to live in a religious state?
yeah they sure are. Imagine being persecuted into answering your door, having the majority in your society decide the kind of society they want and paying taxes that provide services to a society which you benefit from. Doh!
