atheists believe in progress even though nothing has changed except our technology. they also believe in democracy even though it's a meaningless ideal (like god). they think technology will somehow redeem humanity even though all it does is make things more convenient. worst of all they believe in an inherently ordered and knowable universe in the face of absolute chaos

yes they do. mainstream atheism is just latest version of protestantism. same world-view, morality and philosophy of the world, except you worship nogod instead of god. in their case it's entirely true when they say religion is obsolete, since every modern atheist belief is an extension of christian doctrine and assumption

lets see...

i'm not really sure of anything
i don't hate anyone
i don't identify with any religion
and i don't try to know anything

and i'm not even that sure of all those things...

There's a big difference between the "Hail Satan" types who are actively hostile to morality and decency and like to dishonor Jesus and whatnot, and the "Jesus was a cool guy but miracles are made up" types who are just trying to promote a rational view of the world. I think it's arguable that the latter group is an extension of protestantism because they probably have a Christian upbringing and will still respect Jesus and will do things like quote the Bible sometimes, and basically they are responding to critiques of religion in the way Protestants do (which is embracing the critiques and divorcing themselves from the prior religious structure in order to create a new one which is free of the prior issues). It may seem like they've given up everything in the process, but I do think most of them still like Jesus and will respond to his words and image positively and generally do not like seeing him mocked.

The Hail Satan types just don't have any respect for Jesus either because they don't really understand who he was or there is just something internally corrupt about them, idk. In the latter case I think it's fair to say that they are legitimately evil people at heart

that atheism is some modern brilliant invention instead of something that has been around as long as religion

that building their lives over something they dont believe in doesnt make them pathetic

not to seriouspost (and i won't) but i don't think it's fair to lump all morality and philosophy of the enlightenment in with christian thought because none of it is inherently christian and much of it arose before christianity was even a thing fuckbutt
