Then what's the Atheist Manifesto?

Never heard of it. I've been an atheist for nearly 20 years now.

I've heard of the Humanist Manifesto, but that's compatible with most forms of theism (barring some kinds of documentary literalism).

 

[AV1611VET]

Which one? There's four (apparently).

Pretty busy, aren't they?

 

[Shemjaza]

Then what's the Atheist Manifesto?

Humanists, LaVeyan Satanists, Raelians and even some parts of the Creativity Movement are atheists... but have practically nothing in common aside from a lack of belief in a supernatural God.

Different kinds of Christian have different interpretations of the Bible and some have different holy books they add on... but the all have at least the Bible as a starting point... atheists don't have the equivalent.

Pretty busy, aren't they?

Yes. And since there is no global unified Atheist Movement... what's your point?

 

[AV1611VET]

Yes. And since there is no global unified Atheist Movement... what's your point?

That they can't decide what's what?

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

That they can't decide what's what?

Or that there might not be any global atheist movement against Christianity? Simplest solutions are often times the best ones.

Re the book, The Atheist Manisfesto, the Case against Christianity, Judaism, and Islam:

By contrast, the journal of popular science Automates intelligents praised the book, saying it "reads like a novel. (...) In a very pleasing style, it takes on every aspect of the blindness and human evil produced by religions.

Using your logic, WW2 is a misnomer.

Not even close. Just a reviewer, aka a person giving an opinion, says a book is a pleasant read, doesn't mean there is a global atheistic group.

"Global" being the key word ... right?

... now what are you trying to get at?

Using your logic, nothing is global, is it?

There's no such thing as "global," is there?

No, that's not at all what I'm saying at all and if you read what I said, you'd see that clear as day.

Saying "That there is no global atheistic conspiracy" is exactly as it says: that there is no atheistic conspiracy!

A bloody child can see that and understand what I'm saying and you're supposed to be in your 70s!

There is no global atheistic conspiracy. If there is, expose it.

The weirdest thing is that most of the explanations for a global atheist conspiracy are fundamentally anti-atheistic.

Surely you don't expect a global atheistic conspirator to be pro-atheistic, do you?
