True, but with proper moderation, this sub could have been a place to discuss the philosophy and finer nuance of atheism rather than just shitting on Christianity like a bunch of edgy teenagers.

Alright I'm game! What do you think are some of the nuances that don't have a chance to be explored to their potential?

[–] Rhoeri@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Well, for starters-

• the role of atheism in the workplace.

• is atheism represented well in Hollywood?

• What economical impact does atheism hold? Are we contributing enough to be recognized amongst other groups in comparison?

• Where does atheism fit in on the world-stage of charitable donations. How can we improve this?

• Related: How can atheists improve their image? What can we do as a collective?

See? There’s five examples of mature discussions that could be had if people didn’t see this community as a trash receptacle for angsty teens to bash “tEh bAd cHriStiAnS.”

Okay I'm waiting to hear your feelings on these subjects.

[–] Rhoeri@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you joking? There was a time where I would have. Now this community is a joke. It’ll be bombarded with shitpost responses.

Wow you're such an asshole, I've given you an opportunity to break outside of the "edgy teenager" you think you're complaining about and all you can do is be a complete anus.

You have an emotional problem you need to look at.

Thanks for proving my point. Ad homonym is the “Reddit atheists” favorite weapon.
