Yes aggressive adolescent atheism is almost comical; especially when the aggressive adolescent atheists are adults. They actually think exactly like the most intolerant, irrational religious people, and don't even realize it.
Besides, some religious philosophies are officially agnostic, which in my opinion, is a much more mature and scientific position to take, if you're going to try to "educate" one into people.
People's cultural mythology is very important to them; without it they become psychologically fragmented people. Look at the U.S. everyone here is on psychotropic drugs, Jung was right, you can't unite people in a less mythological way and expect them to stay sane.

I find that most atheists on the Internet are adolescents who don't even understand this about religion, they just see it as a polarizing war of "scientific atheism" versus "fundamentalist Christianity" or "extremist murderous Islam" and I'm just kind of like "oh dear." I can't even entertain these people anymore, I actually saw a thread on another forum where a guy asked if Christianity causes narcissism and I was just like
So yeah...it's not as simple as people seem to want to make it, it's not like a debate between political parties.
