    Having used all 3 and not totally hating any of them, all the Windows ones I agree with, the two Linux ones that isn’t old computer I agree with, and I only agree with the money one for Mac. I don’t have an issue with Mac OS more than Windows OS, but it is way overpriced. At least with Windows I haven’t actually paid Microsoft much on thet front. Though if you add in other MS products then we’re back to being screwed.









  • People who have this take often feel similar about medicine, vaccines, etc. Natural remedies, essential oils, or just good old God is punishing you if you get sick. (A lot of them are hypocrites too, as they’ll drop some of this stuff to save their own lives).


  • Burning books like this requires enough targeted hatred and a need to offend the targets. It also is usually more effective if your target is a minority (not specifically racial, just a much weaker target), as that bolsters your position of power and lessens the likelihood of retaliation.

    Atheists sometimes have that much hatred, but at least where I am Christianity isn’t small enough to be a minority, so the fear of backlash might be holding back some of the hatred type atheists.

    Another reason may depend on why someone became an atheists. Many of us don’t hate religious people directly, we just have issues with what organized religion gets away with. People like me came to this conclusion by comparing scientific evidence to blind faith. By nature, faith will be more emotional and reactionary, whereas if you come to a position after learning and changing yourself, you’re more open to understanding why it’s not really a good idea to hate like that.

    Though I’d call myself agnostic vs an atheist.
