Oh yeah. In many ways I wouldn’t have been able to comment then. Much more tolerant and open community now, IMO.

It still happens only now it’s more nuanced. Typically, they bring up Richard Dawkins as being the archetypal “aggressive” atheist.

Funny how that works. Typically I’m reading about the Bible in here more than anything else when it come to a belief structure. Even to the point of quoting scriptures. Prayer lists. And so on. Do I say anything? No.

But when atheists come up it’s like a free for all sometimes and it’s easy for them to cast their aspersion on what they think defines an atheist. The group think is to not reciprocate — IOW, it’s still OK to slander atheists.
