I used to attend a weekly philosophy group. The athiests were the worst debaters there. Just obtuse, embittered nonsense constantly. The least reason and the biggest chips on their shoulders.
There's a huge difference between true atheists, who have come to their conclusions out of their own reasoning and philosophical thought process, and those who treat atheism like a "belief system", basically like "the religion that there is no god". I have observed that the vast majority of atheists who feel compelled to argue religion on the internet are of the latter category, and therefore, obviously, idiots.

FYI, the group I attended wasn't on the Internet.
I was trying to use a category that doesn't reduce it to "US atheists", because - looking from the outside, it appears that many "atheists" in the united states are literal "non"-believers, as opposed to non-believers. The group you attended didn't happen to be mostly US americans?

No, it was a British group.
so the dumb atheists phenomenon made it over the pond :/ sadface. Well - I suppose we see the same phenomenon with MAGA stupidity all over western Europe, so why am I surprised?
