Not an official "question," but one I'm often asked....

Why are atheists so angry?

There's a short answer and a long answer to this question...which are you prepared to consider?

Short answer: We're not "angry," we're just disappointed.

Long answer:

Just because someone references Jesus/Mohammad/God/G-d/Whatever in a conversation doesn't mean that you have to get your serious-face-armor on immediately. 

Atheists aren't angry at you, they're angry at the piety to which you subscribe.

We are angry because we can't have a conversation with you that doesn't end up with you presenting some circular logic bullshit about the bible that we have already heard 8 million times.

We're angry that you don't "get" where we are coming from because you're delusional, solely because nothing "too bad" has happened in your life to challenge your faith, or you were just too delusional to see the fact that your mother/father/sister/brother got cancer/died in a car wreck/was murdered wasn't an act that was "according to God's plan," but a bullshit fact of life that sucks.

We're angry because we can't empathize with you when you're asking for prayer...because we know it's bullshit.

We're angry because you think we aren't charitable and that we don't consider the welfare of humanity an important aspect of current day life (because we have no basis for having any kind of morals whatsoever).

We're angry because we buy an ad on a bus to tell you we're here, and your idiot champions pay for a bus to follow us around telling us the God we don't believe in still loves us anyway.

We're angry because we can't make/help you understand the logical fallacies surrounding the FACT that the world isn't only 4,000 years old, and "Adam and Eve" are Hebrew words that carry the meaning of "humanity."

We're angry because you take the word of people like Jim Bakker, Ed Young, C.S. Lewis, and Billy Graham as absolute gospel fact without looking into what they are saying for yourselves.

We're angry because you're behind us. Intellectually. Spiritually. In general.

We're angry because you purport and spread shit all over the world that limits the evolution of our minds, and therefore our species.

We're angry because you can't feed the hungry or help the poor without bringing your precious savior into the mix. (Hungry people don't give a shit about the God that has abandoned them and left them homeless, FYI)

We're angry because you laugh when a champion of reason like Christopher Hitchens is dying of cancer.

We're angry because you are all so self-centered and living the dreams and prophecies of people you've never met and who couldn't even speak our language.

We're angry because you're ignorant. YOU ARE IGNORANT. And worse, you're okay with that.

Are we superior? I would say yes. I'm an angry, arrogant heathen who has used the last bit of tolerance I have within me and I cannot stand to placate your bullshit delusions of grandeur any longer.

WE ARE NOT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE.
WE NEVER HAVE BEEN.
WE WERE NOT CREATED BY SOME GOD.
THE BIBLE IS A COLLECTION OF HUNDRED-FOLD TRANSLATED STORIES.
THE BIBLE IS NOT HISTORY.
GOD IS AS IMAGINARY AS SANTA CLAUSE. AND SATAN. AND ZEUS.

That's why we're angry.
