The militant atheists get unfairly attacked all the time for denouncing theism. On the other hand, the militant theists get corrected by the atheists and become labeled militant. How do we become militant for having honesty and integrity? We search for the truth and even though we want to believe in something, we can't because it is dishonest. It is worth pointing out a notable difference between today's militant atheists and today's militant theists. The former are known to write books and angry letters to the editor. The latter are known to shoot abortion doctors, fly aircraft into buildings, lie about the efficacy of condoms in preventing AIDS, inscribe Bible verses on weapons and, oh yes, blame people for the natural disasters that afflict them.

The term "militant atheist" in my opinion, was created and used as a form of coercion. One of the most powerful forms of brainwashing involves creating enemies and insinuating some sort of battle. You see this all the time, particularity amongst the evangelical movement. Visit battlecry.com for example...


The technique of demonizing the enemy, can be taken literally in our case. We are, as far as a lot fundamentalist Christians are concerned, directly or indirectly working for Satan himself. (The pay sucks btw)...
