Glancing over Dawkins, I kinda feel like he's a bit less euphoric (as in thinking religion makes you completely evil) though that may just be due to the first link in regards to a church advert that apparently offended someone and the last one doesn't come off as a douche so much as why bother. It could just be me though and one could still say the guy is being abrasive and with the first link, one can say the cinemas were just following some policy.

He's not nuts enough to argue there's absolutely no chance any deity could possibly exist, so he's just narrowly in the agnostic realm, but he puts the odds of it at very, very low. To the point you might as well discount it.
 
ever notice how SJWs and Fedoras alwayd use "It's (insert year here) why do we still X?

Anyone find it ironic that a lot of the euphoric atheists like bitching about religious folks won't shut up about their religion while simultaneously posting a bunch of crappy memes and jokes and whining about how they don't believe in a God?

Great. You don't believe. No one cares.

It's sort of like if you formed a club about the fact that you hated golf, constantly talked about how much you hated golf and that you weren't a golfer, and were rude to any golfers you saw, or randomly accused people of being golfers if they disagreed with you about anything.

Now, George Carlin hated golf, too, and even did more than one comedy routine about how he hated golf and golfers, but I doubt he walked up to people constantly and went on and on about it. After all, he hated pretty much every major group of people in the world.
 
All of this emotionally charged, 3edgy5u antitheism bullshit is starting to get to me. It shouldn't be, but it is.

According to a strictly naturalistic atheist worldview, particularly that of our standard euphoric, fedora-tipping, neckbearded fatass, there is absolutely, positively no God and humanity arose via random chance exclusively through evolution and natural selection.

Now, if this is true – specifically that there is no God – then there was never any higher being in place to set any kind of rules or moral principles.

If there is no God, no basis for morality, and the only vaguely identifiable concept of purpose is to be born, reproduce and spread your kind, and then die, then shouldn’t it logically follow that there ought to be war, violence, and discrimination in the world in order to eliminate the weak and make way for the strong? That’s how nature works, after all. And this undermines any authority they think they have when they make these "edgy-as-fuck" memes.

Why the fuck should they care about the progression of violent wars in the name of “religion”, or the “child abuse” suffered by a kid raised under the roof of religious parents? Under their own belief system, they have no right to. They have no logically justifiable reason to feel that these actions are unjust or that others should feel the same way, because according to their own ideals, morals and feelings are all just the subjective random firing of synapses in the brain creating a reaction. There is no higher, greater reason to act on these things.

Things gets even more absurd when you further consider the role of natural selection in the godless world that these neckbeards think they believe in.

A neckbeard could argue that they feel anger at these situations because they think that people ought to know the “truth of science” or whatever. But their very belief system undermines truth, science, and reason. It makes these things relative and even inconceivable, because if our senses merely became as they are due to nothing but random, mutational changes throughout evolution then there is no way to be certain that what we are observing is true, or even if we are able to comprehend what truth itself is.

I think that most normal atheists can understand that the world sucks and that they just have to deal with things as they are, and do their part to survive in a violent universe. They’ll see religious friends and neighbors in their community and, logically, they won’t really care what they believe, because they understand that under their own belief system, what someone else believes doesn’t really matter in the end.

A euphoric neckbeard doesn’t accept this. They don’t even really consider this. They just want to use their “rational” idiocy to mock other people in order to feel superior and more intelligent than those around them using logically impossible moral dilemmas in attempts to “disprove” the idea of a higher being.

It’s funny really. The fact that these losers have to irrationally and hypocritically resort to moral arguments to promote their strictly amoral ideology in an appeal to human emotion is, I think, more an evidence of a logical, moral, omnipotent being than just about anything.

TL;DR -- The euphoric atheist's philosophic worldview is internally broken and literally can not work in a rational, reasonable universe.

I'm pretty sure the person who made that doesn't understand that evolution applies to all. For all we know, evolution could favor the one praying in that letting that praying person get the better end of evolution.

Ah yes, because nuclear bombs were invented because of religion... what the hell?
Well, one of the guys who invented it, Oppenheimer, quoted the Bhagavad Gita so there? Sure religion could end the world but then again, so can anything else, with or without human intervention.

The number of memes that these non-believers create clearly corroborates with how the atheists are portrayed in this one.
Last image could use a katana wielding atheist saying "I don't believe in god, the rest of you are retards for believing a sky zombie". That aside, one has to wonder if anyone mentioned how cancerous and unfunny their 2edgy4u atheist memes are.

I think this one's my favorite of the collage you posted. The atheist is obviously trying to parody those two photos, but in doing so unwittingly reveals his own blind dogmatic fanaticism. The irony is palpable.
 
These idiots who think all conflict will go away forever if religion was abolished really have no understanding of the political and economic reasons behind attacks like this. It's as childish as thinking all evil is caused by the devil or whatever. Euphorics have a lot in common with their hated theist nemeses and it's hilarious.

And how much you want to bet he doesn't know anything about the periodic table or those science books he holds.

I cringe mostly at when people think that in the future everyone will no longer believe in religion at all.
It's just so pretentious.

There is no love, seriously? do they not know of the love between family, the love between friends and that there are relationships that can last until the end of their days?
these people need to get out more

Looking at that image, it looks more along the lines of the fact that a telescope isn't as deadly as an assault rifle.


But it still oftern turns to hate so it's not real.
It could of made for a good joke in saying love is just chemical reactions. Instead, say it just leads to hate because of reasons.
 
Again, if these Euphorics were so enlightened, they'd have done more for humanity than simply shitpost badly designed memes that cause people to dig in and act contrarian since they're being dicks.

I think most euphoric atheists and other "progressive thinkers" operate under this delusion of a "competence via association." There are plenty of educated and important scientists who hold atheistic or agnostic beliefs who are either extremely successful in their careers or have accomplished great things in their fields. By believing in the same thing that they do, they hold this belief that they're "as good as" these people without putting in the effort.

That's like becoming a Scientologist because Tom Cruise has been in some good movies.

Cool, I love being lectured by a man on how I can't be religious and for gender equality.

It's true that this comment isn't very cringey (other than this guy's profile pic, like why would you choose that picture), but it actually illustrates what I think is a pretty big problem in the feminist movement. Some people have this idea that religious women (especially Muslim women) are oppressed and need to be freed from their patriarchal brainwashing. They have no idea how badly they're alienating religious women. Again, we see this all the time with Muslim women, especially in the West. Most Muslim women in Western countries choose to cover their hair; nobody is forcing them to do anything and (unlike in many Muslim-majority countries) they don't face any repercussions from society for choosing to keep their hair uncovered. It's just a personal decision. And so is choosing to practice Islam. So they tend to get (rightfully) pissed on when Westerners come up to them, crushed under the weight of their White Man's Burden, and start talking about how they need to "liberate" themselves by throwing off their headscarves and rejecting their religion.

I won't deny for a second that most religions are patriarchal in nature, but that doesn't mean that they all actively work to oppress women. And the best way to get religious women more interested in feminism is to work with their religion instead of going "DON'T YOU REALIZE HOW OPPRESSED YOU ARE?!?! PLEASE, LET ME GUIDE YOU TO THE PATH OF TRUE ENLIGHTENMENT."

One would like ask him why patriarchy? Aren't there religions that can be femenist? With Wicca (outside of its founder creating it to have sex or something like that), you at least have three female deities that are given importance. Plus, what religions are there besides Islam, Christianity, and Judaism (since he already listed those) that have the patriarchal overtones?
