Atheists is just a shortened word for Anti-Theist..

So they are the same in truth..

But i would say an athiest would elongate the word and declare themselves Anti-Theist to indicate they are hostile towards religious people and will get agressive towards Theists when they cross paths with one..

Incorrect.

Incorrect.

"Antitheism has been adopted as a label by those who regard theism as dangerous, destructive, or encouraging of harmful behavior."
from Antitheism - Wikipedia
What "atheism" means, you have already been explained countless times by countless people here.

On this forums atheist people seem to appreciate antitheism, so antitheism too is closely related to atheism.

1. Take a logic101 course. Seriously.
2. Let go of the generalizations.
3. Abstain from drawing conclusions from what "seems to...".

Your thinking lacks precision, and this affects your conclusions dramatically.

But I guess what you actually want to tell us here (as in all of your threads): You don´t like atheism. That´s ok with me.

Antitheist is also synonymous of disliking theists.

I was one, once upon a time.

I don't think it's ok with you, otherwise you wouldn't reply to my posts.

As for the point 2: Are you suggesting that the majority of the atheists on this forum don't agree with antitheism?

I am replying to your attempts at stringing arguments together - which are usually faulty.
Your preferences and your emotions are your personal business and thus irrelevant for any discussion.

No. Point #2 merely suggests that you´d to better let go of your sweeping generalizations.

If you want to find out the percentage of antitheists on this site, the easiest way would be to make a poll. Put me on record as not being an antitheist.

If I've learned anything here on ChristianForums.com, it's that if an atheist goes on and on attacking Christianity over and over again, it means that atheist secretly believes in Christianity.

So if a Christian goes on and on attacking atheism over and over again, what does that mean?

How you could talk about God and not taking into account emotions? You cannot possibly talk about Christian God without preferences and emotions.

Hello

I think this line of thought is unreasonable. If i were to secretly love something i hate does that mean i secretly hate something i love?

What motivates someone to do something can only be known by the individual - unless he tells you.

Thank you

I would suppose someone who actively tries to suppress one's ability to hold religious views.

I can do it quite fine.

Try to focus. You were making assumptions as to why and what about your posts I responded to, and I corrected you.
Whether or not you are able to discuss without being emotional about the subject, is your problem. I am responding to that which lends itself to discussion.
