Best anti-atheist literature? I've read "The Dunciad" by Alexander Pope and was impressed at how it dealt with the midwit problem even back then.

How come every time I try to give you religinuts your time of the day you just turn hostile and call me a tranny?
What's even the point of learning to refute atheists? No one cares about that discussion anymore, the normalfag subhumans are too involved with swallowing the densely concentrated toxic spillage of some Kanye tiktok social media garbage gossip, and the cool smart people like me are too dogmatically rational to be swayed by sophistry and rhetoric.
Just praise your God and be nice to people, that's literally the best way to get people on your side.

I am sure you feel all superior and smug about calling me out on using the word christcuck, but if you were truly impartial you would have accepted it as just a part of instinctive 4chan lingo and moved on.
80%+ of religion threads on here are either christian or gnostic and they always contain myriads of 2-word length replays involving the words "libtard", "bugman", "cringe", "desu", "senpai", "hylic", etc. Any attempt to engage wih them rationally fails and the "refutation", in the rare cases it exists, is a Dostoevskian take on social consequences of lack of faith, rather than a real consideration concerning the validity of religion.
