hopefully Scribs has not already posted about the antitheist.
while the atheist is characterized by a lack of belief in a god or gods, the antitheist is characterized by a predisposition against the belief in a god or gods.
so the antitheist is like a strong atheist but goes a step further and says that not only is there no god or gods, but the belief in a god or gods is dangerous and destructive to society, based on the assertion that religion in general causes conflict among people who hold differing (and all ultimately wrong) beliefs.
does anyone on this site consider themselves to be an antitheist? if so, what are your reasons why you think religion is destructive to society?
are there any out there who would classify themselves as anti-antitheist? if so, why?
