    To be fair the real atheist extremes are all bounded to countries like China, North Korea, the former soviet union, and tankies (who never go outside), so it’s hard for most people to think about until they meet people from other parts of the world.

      Also “The cult of reason” during the French Revolution, and I’m not even really saying those priests didn’t have it coming. I’m an atheist, but I don’t really think humanity would be any less violent if religion didn’t exist.
