Does anyone here think there is too much religious entitlement here on DU?

[whathehell]

315. Please, my ass -- I've seen PLENTY of anti-theist vitriol all over DU

and, sorry to disappoint, but no, I'm not interested in seeing more..Added to that, the administrators have indicated they don't want religious (or irreligious, I assume) threads in GD.

At this point, it seems like anyone who is NOT an atheist is treated
like a second class member here, to the point where some of us are
wondering if this site should be renamed "Atheist Underground"
instead of Democratic Underground.

I'm SICK of people who insist, directly or not, that one cannot be respected as a progressive or a Democrat, without undergoing what's fast becoming a kind of "Atheist Loyalty Test".

Fuck that shit, along with the smug, condescending attitude that basically tells us to "not complain", because there are even "meaner" actions to which we could be subjected....What a shitty, bullying attitude to take to fellow DUers.

What people "believe" or don't 'believe" in terms of the presence or lack of presence of a higher power is highly personal, and, in my opinion, shouldn't even be part of the conversation on a POLITICAL board, especially if that person's beliefs have ZERO to do with their politics.
