1176: Some Atheists on Muslims
Author(s): Scott Douglas Jacobsen
Publication (Outlet/Website): Medium (Personal)
Publication Date (yyyy/mm/dd): 2025/05/09
I used to write for a Canadian atheist publication.
One time, a series of hilarious events began to ensue,
as the since disappeared Editor-in-Chief informed me.
An atheist community commentator,
was having a tizzy,
because I collaborated with Muslims of diverse ethnic and denominational backgrounds.
This is an issue of anti-Muslim sentiment of some within some online atheist communities.
Is the aim to hate religious people, to hate religious people by proxy of atheists who collaborate with them, or to chastise for bridge-building?
Is there any virtue in any of those options?
