Redem The reason why is that.. after a certain amount of time.. say 4 or 5 posts explaining just why the second law of thermodynamics doesn't mean what they think it does... I start to get a bit miffed... evil The worst of them bring out the worst in me.
XDXDXD You tried to explain entropy to them? rofl rofl rofl rofl Holy ********! No wonder you wanted to tear someone's throat out.

It's like the Big Bang, biogenesis, and evolution. Not really related at all. Well, I'm more of a depressed person. I had a lot more rage as a Christian, actually. I hate people, but that's mostly because I'm an Aspie. There's also this misconception that Atheists are just mad at God for having a shitty life. They seem to think that everyone believes in God, like it or not, so we just must be rebellious God-haters, rather than non-believers.

Aerosheik Is it just me or do atheists have a preconceived notion of being angry individuals? If so, how can we correct it, without actually backing down from what we believe? Really? I think atheists are too laid back. Some atheists hate religion and all who worship the evil, obsolete b*****d known as God but they're subtle about it. I've noticed a lot of atheists have a dark sense of humor but not really anger.

Well, they decide that entropy as defined in thermodynamics ( waste energy essentially) means "disorder", and thus that everything gets worse over time. As if something as complex as energy that is no longer available to do work can be mapped into some subjective opinion on what is more orderly. Idiots. =/ The basics of the subject aren't even all that complex dammit >.<

I don't know about angry, but I know a lot of people perceive atheists as rebellious, immoral, and psycho. This is probably because, some are, and the rest don't stand out. Atheists who are humanists or outwardly 'normal' are probably not known as atheists by most people. Some people have tried to remedy this by not calling themselves atheist to avoid a complete turn off by others. This is the Bright movement, although, I'm not sure how well it works, since Brightism sounds like some hippy weird movement and would probably get a weird look as well as if theyd just said they were atheist.

It's like I said in another thread: WritelySo Most religious people have been told that we are atheists because we have turned from god in anger or frustration, and they assume that we are filled with anger and hate. They use the fact that we fight for our rights as "evidence" of our "anger." Religious dominance in the west is fading. As it fades, atheists and free-thinkers will continue to fight for cultural and legal equality, and - just as has been done with feminists, people of colour and gays - the dominant culture will continue to use that fight as "proof" that we are "hostile" in order to reinforce their dominance and dismiss our legitimate concerns. Some people feel it's important not to make waves for that very reason. They think that it's a bad idea to reinforce the stereotype of "bitchy feminist" or "hostile black guy" or "whiny homosexual" or "angry atheist." This is how the stereotypes work, they scare us away from voicing our opinions or standing up for ourselves. It's hegemony. As atheists, we have legitimate concerns about religion and its hold on the cultures we live in. We have the right and personal responsibility to stand up for ourselves, to share our views and to be as vocal about our beliefs as the religious are about theirs. Go and wear a sign too, be an alternate view, atheist "stuck pixel" on your campus. When religious people try to play the "malcontent" card, that is when you ignore them and continue speaking, calmly, rationally and honestly... that is how you resist that stereotype. If you allow yourself to be silenced by it, you are giving it power it doesn't deserve. We are angry for very legitimate reasons.
