I seem to run into this kind of thing a lot. Atheists can\u2019t seem to put minor differences behind them and concentrate on the spreading reason and fighting against the tyranny of the religious. We have to put our differences aside and work together.<\/p>\n
I know that the only think atheists really have in common is a lack of belief in deities. However, being part of the greater atheistic community entails much more. The fact is that if you are part of the greater atheistic community, you almost certainty value reason, scientific education, and are at least slightly vocal about your atheism. In general, most atheists who are part of the greater atheistic community also tend to be politically liberal.<\/p>\n
Still, despite all these commonalities and our common goals, atheists tend to argue and fight over seemingly trivial differences. Don\u2019t get me wrong, I love the fact that atheists aren\u2019t robotic clones the way so many religious believers tend to be, but I also think that there is a time to argue and a time to work together against the seemingly insurmountable obstacle that religious believers put before us.<\/p>\n
Can\u2019t we all just get a long?
