In reply to the discussion: Why I won’t be going to Skeptic or Atheist meetings anymore [View all]Bluenorthwest
(45,319 posts)Atheists are often far, far worse bigots than the religious community, and anyone wanting links can have them by request. My DU experience made me skeptical of those who claim skepticism. The most despicable anti gay ignorance I have seen on the internet comes from folks who claim to be atheists skeptical of all things, all things except the bullshit they believe about gay people.
If there is no God, those who believe are still not as stupid as those who claim 'science' while repeating anti gay superstitions they learned from the right wing. The most horrid of ignorance is the willful sort, particularly when it is promulgated with gusto and wry comments.
On DU I learned about Darwin Central, which from what I saw was like Phelps Church without the songs.
