Atheism isn't relevant to the Oregon Shooter
[b]People are making a baseless jump to the Oregon shooter being atheist. [/b]
He singled out Christians but the articles I read said nothing about him being atheist. Now to my knowledge we don't know why he singled out Christians [u]but if he was against religion that would make him an [b]Anti-Theist[/b][/u]. Atheist are not against religion, people often confuse their reasons for not believing as being against religion. However, some atheist are anti-Theist as well. Lets also not forget the fact, there is a difference between disliking organized religion and being completely against it wanting to get rid of it.
[b]Atheism & anti-theism are two completely different things. [/b]
[b]Edit 1:[/b] "Even if he was atheist, that would say nothing bad about atheism." - Lok
Which is true.

An Anti-Thiest is always Athiest too but an Athiest isn't always Anti-Thiest.

He was a muslim confirmed.

Good to know

6 RepliesHe represents atheism just as much as the Westboro baptist church represents Christianity or ISIS represents Islam. So not at all.

I'm almost certain that guy was an anti-theist or just hated christians as he asked for no other religion from my understanding.

2 RepliesLook up the story on Washington Post. They checked his internet activity and he said he identified as atheist

Same thing happened at columbine. There was that girl that was apparently asked if she believed in god by one of the killers and she said yes but that's not what happened at all. Still it got all hyped up by the media.

1 Replyreports are slowly coming in that not all victims were asked if they were Christian. It's starting to look like it was fabricated my the media. just sayin

1 ReplyHe wasnt to be honest he sound more christian, like he was saving them in a sick twisted way, like a stalker will kill his victim then himslef so they can live happy forever. The blogs he had even talked how he thouvh it was the end of days and the world is being destroyed by certain groups. Some christians believe that even the famous left behind movies where people of certain faithes were left behind and only "pure"people were taking. I remebr people saying that hoe it will happen,

3 RepliesHe wouldn't even be an anti theist, he would be an anti-Christian

Imagine how chaotic the media would be if the shooter singled out muslims

6 RepliesHe didn't target religion just one religion, so what if he was actually muslim and that's why the media won't say. Or what if he was an atheist that was also crazy.

He can burn in hell. [spoiler] oh, wait...[/spoiler]

Agreed:)

I agree that there is an important distinction between the two.

5 RepliesEven if he was atheist, that would say nothing bad about atheism. Surely Christians aren't wrong or evil because the crusades happened.
