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

421. I do identify as an antitheist, yes.

I think, though, we are not on the same page where that term is concerned.

I hold that antitheism is a position contrary to theism, not theists. In practicality, this simply means that I will challenge claims to the general benefit of religious belief. Again, it has more to do with ideas, and the moral and ethical implications of those ideas, than the people who hold them.

My lack of belief may put me in the extreme minority, but I don't live in a vacuum. Most of my family and closest friends are religious. I understand perfectly well there are good, decent religious people out there. I still think they're wrong, but lots of people are wrong about lots of different things. Being wrong doesn't necessarily make you a bad person.

And, being opposed to particular idea doesn't mean one would favor its forcible removal from society.
