I thought we'd snuffed this shite-arse logic out with "toxic masculinity"? They said "acting like a 2007 edgy internet atheist", not "being atheist, which makes them edgy".
Literally all they did was suggest the opposite scenario. What exactly is edgy about it? It's the atheism being taken issue with clearly, there's no internet edgy about it. If that is edgy, then it basically says "anyone who disagrees with me is 2007 internet edgy."
Christianity hasn't killed people. People who would have killed people anyway taking parts of Christian scripture out of context has killed people. By that logic, scientific studies have killed people due to eugenics. Should that mean that we should ban the study of science or even genetics? Absolutely not!
What do you categorise as "forcing their beliefs on other people"?
See, I could reply to this with "nothing, because there's no afterlife". That's what's irritating: taking figures of speech or offhand comments based on this old idea of God and opting to be a humourless little twerp about them.
