Their idealisation of traditional/conservative values even extends to the fashion of the time, apparently (the post-war American economic boom being the zenith of those values, it seems - y'know, back when 'men were men' and women and minorities still knew their place.)

I kinda feel bad after seeing that because I definitely fit the hipster description.

I mean it's not perfect but it's kind of close and that is frustrating. I'm so much more than a stereotype!

However, those neckbeards wearing fedoras also are people I've met in real life or online and it's scary how accurate that is.

I somehow made the switch from fedora to hipster in high school, still kinda confused on how that happened (also very glad it happened).

Because there are many atheisms, just as theisms, and the most popular kind is the most obnoxious and the loudest.

Most of the concepts used in religion aren't defined consistently or at all, there's zero evidence that they exist in reality, religious claims are either untestable or flat out false, we have a fairly good understanding of their history, the religious themes of most of the current big religions were already around for centuries and the fact that the best counter to any criticism of religion is editing a fake quote into a picture of a fat guy wearing a hat, which is a combination of a strawman and an ad hominem

Also, before you begin the bullshit negative proof game, can you demonstrate that the God of the Bible wasn't actually Satan in disguise and wrote the Bible to trick religious people, as Jesus was actually a demon and following him meant that they doomed their eternal souls to hell?

Oh far from, sir.
Atheism is by definition not a religion for religion requires the belief in a deity.

He could do all sorts of spooky black magic. Think about all the evil crafty Jews he might have fed with those loafs and fishes. He just presented it as an act of mercy, but was really just feeding his evil, Satanic followers. Why else would you keep sinners alive, to spread more sin of course.

And then there's the synagogue of Satan stuff, the perfect diversion. What better way is there to convince people you're not Satanic than accusing others of it? That way they'll never suspect you. After all, those Pharisees were merely his brainwashed minions
