Generally speaking though, Atheists aren't interested in dissecting the differences between Judaism, Christianity, Islam, etc. Point blank, if you follow any form of Theism, then you're all lumped into the same category in their eyes.

Except with those who have a vendetta against christianity. They can be just as bad as christians.

Of course there is always an exception to the rule, which is why I said "generally speaking" but you do make a valid point nonetheless.

Im not gonna go out of my way. But yeah, I do think the word "god" shouldnt be associated with anything related to government. It shouldnt be in school, shouldnt be on our money. No more then it shoould say "In No God We Trust"

It's funny though how everybody seems to get on Christianity and knock The Bible but it appears Islam and the Qu'ran never get's brought up. You know how, 'manipulating' and 'brain-washing' The Bible be, hahahaha, ain't nobody read the Qu'ran huh? Cuz boyyyyyyyy, that book is on another level of what Atheists call 'manipulation'. It's extremely more direct, especially, especially to non-believers. I mean Atheists seem very forward on discrediting and misquoting The Bible, when The Qu'ran has very strong feelings on Atheism! On ya'll. In a real way men.
The Qu'ran rejects Atheists completely. Hard too. Hard. But I don't see people jumping down them. Why? Is we non-believers a lil ignorant to it? :D
It's really thru-out the whole book but..for a quick-fast taste in just the second chapter..
--- Quote from: The Cow ---2:7. Allah hath set a seal on their hearts and on their hearing, and on their eyes is a veil; great is the penalty they (incur).
2:10. In their hearts is a disease; and Allah has increased their disease: And grievous is the penalty they (incur), because they are false (to themselves).
2:39. "But those who reject Faith and belie Our Signs, they shall be companions of the Fire; they shall abide therein."

Atheism in The Bible is called an abomination which is obviously evidenttttttt but The Qu'ran talks about, Allah-willing, could and will take away one's sight, one's hearing, make one deaf dumb and blind and will have one burning in hell for denying God. Now, ya'll wanna talk about The Bible and fear? Hmm? Ya'll wanna talk about The Bible and brain washing?
Why? Cuz ya'll think pissing off Christians is fun? Man, yo, think about what Muslims opinions of Atheists are? Why us? Lol. Is it just the ignorance to The Qu'ran? But really why fucks wit just us? Atheistm gotta reject ev'rythang, wordddddd?
I don't know.

What if "they" isn't the atheists you envision the qu'ran is talking about? atheism is a very ambiguous word, and so is faith. I seem to think you believe atheists are people that don't believe in "God" but God is also ambiguous, probably the most ambiguous term in language. What I believe the qu'ran is talking about in those excerpts is that those who don't have faith will suffer the consequences. Those consequences are felt in real life, one way or the other.

Weren't there people willing to kill a teacher who called a teddybear Mohammed? Or entire cities protesting because some dude from Denmark made comics making fun of Islam? Cartoonists in western countries make fun of Jesus all day and nothing happens.
If I remember correctly some dude from the Netherlands was also killed for saying what he thought about Islam publicly.
Let's be serious, please.

Well to be fair there is more poverty in Islamic nations than there are in Christian nations(based on real GDP no ghettos) which unites people and sometimes calls for revolutionary acts. Religion has nothing to do with how people treat each other.

It's been on money forever though. Besides, it keeps the hopelessly faithful content that god will bless their money or some stupid shit. It's better to keep them happy so they don't start blowing up the federal reserve like they did with abortion clinics.
