Ideally an empty atheist group is the platonic ideal. Nothing about nothing. No arguments. No exclusion. No evangelicals. No conversion attempts.

#Atheism #SocialMediaAs an atheist I never got the point of evangelizing atheism. Isn't that half the problem with religions?

I do find it a bit distasteful sometimes but I'd disagree with you here. It's a support group and the only way to wake up society to absurd flaws of religion is through community conciousness.

True. I never got the point of it.
But I’m atheist/agnostic in a place where nearly everyone else is. I guess it feels a bit different when you live somewhere where literally everyone else is religious.

In my experience most of these online groups are just memes and stories about being superior to religious people. I had to bail on them because it was gross.

You're saying that from a privilege of living where atheism is acceptable. For many its not and its a powerful tool for resisting religion.

Exactly. It's clearly net positive for our society even if it can be cringe just by the sheer scale of religious oppression in the world.
If atheism forum ate a baby every day it would still be a net positive because people on Lemmy forgot that religious freedom and freedom to be an atheist is not viable in big chunk of the world.
Thats why so many atheist converts become such zealots. Imagine growing up in what essentially is spiritual North Korea and discovering freedom for the first time. That's where many of these cringe atheist memes come from.

When a person believes in a religion, they have trained their brains to ignore part of reality. Once you've trained your brain to do that, manipulative people can more easily abuse your brain into thinking other incorrect things.
And that's how you get MAGA
So the purpose is less about evangelizing atheism, and more about fixing other people's brains for the betterment of society.

Every religion thinks they're "fixing" people by evangelizing
