Some People Never Evolve Past Hate

I watched a YouTube video ealier, by someone from my early days perusing the net as an atheist(I wasn’t into the whole social media scene for a while), and someone, even though at the time he was so “famous” on the net, I just really didn’t care for because I could tell(or so I thought) he was disingenuous. Also, for all his smiling and his soft spoken way, he really was a hater in my opinion. He was one of those, you’re either with me or against me” types and, well, atheists are like a clowder of cats: impossible to herd even though 90% at the time were declared liberals. So, I’m thinking about a response to his YouTube video. Watch for yourself. What do you think of the situation he’s reporting?

The Atheist Consideration

Why are people, well some people, so disgusted by atheism, even the thought of non-believers? No, let’s be clearer: Why do people hate atheists? I’ve actually asked that question of people when I hear them say something like this, out loud, in a group. I mean, do they ever really consider the possibility that one of those people they’re pontificating to may be an atheist? Of course not because that would tip their world off it’s ais for them to know that one of their friends (or relatives!) is an atheist.
