Holy shit this is ridiculous. Let me say now that I don't have this book nor will I ever read it. But christ just seeing this on Amazon makes me annoyed. Because apparently the simple lack of belief in any supernatural deity warrants a collection of self important writings by "famous atheists" so cunts can go around reading this thinking they're superiour.

I'm an athiest and I hate that this exists. Who agrees?

Actually it shows all sings of being one. Along with preachers, low intelligence flock and naysayings.

True, but anyone with even an ounce of rationality knows that atheism the word means nothing other than lack of a belief in gods. The whole atheist culture thing pisses me off. It makes us look bad. I'm actually afraid to say I read science and nature in case of being called an atheist fedora faggot. Although those particular buzzwords are mainly restricted to 4chan.

I'm an agnostic atheist and I don't understand the need to shit on people's beliefs. I don't think you can know whether there is or isn't a god. Atheists who claim to are lying to themselves and others

Who said I was shitting on people's beliefs? I'm an atheist... I was just saying I disagree with how much of a religion atheism is becoming. It literally just means I don't believe in any supernatural deity and that's it.

I just hate the concept of the book. Why, as an atheist, would I need to carry around and read a book like this? It's not a fucking lifestyle. It's not a religion. See what I mean?

Exactly.

Although of course there are considerably more logical arguments for God, if you care about that kind of thing (you shouldn't).

Yes? And? I don't need to read it to know that it's a terrible book just based on the fact that it exists. It could be well structured and have some good secular insight, but the fact that this book exists is just tragic. It's like Hitchen's pocketbook for athiests or whatever. I don't need a book to tell me how to live and atheism isn't a religion so piss off with any such books.
