In light of the rise of political christianity, the rise of militant atheism is both expected and culturally justified.
Now, I welcome an ebb in Christianity and Islam. As well as the expansion of atheism, I just prefer soft atheism over the more Religious-like atheism. It's antithetical to being an atheist.
I am often labeled as being on the offensive, and it'd be nice to talk about this line more (when is it offense, when is it defense).
