    You can be an atheist and a good person. But institutionalized atheism is, without exception, a nihilistic, power-driven horror show.
    Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.
    --John Adams

    Same with racism, institutionalized it's a great evil.

    Anything institutionalized, where the meaning is "established as part of an official organization".

    Your point being?

    ...and none of them did it in the cause of atheism.
    That's true, but only because atheism isn't really a cause. If anything, it's the absence of a cause. And that absence is dearly felt by societies who experience it.

    You need religion for that.
    Also true, but most atheists, despite their protestations to the contrary, have a religion. More often than not, their religion is the state. And it makes a lot sense from an anthropological perspective that the state would fulfill the religious needs of people who deny the existence of God.

    Yes, for me, "institutionalized" is largely a byword for "state policy". That is not to say institutions cannot exist independently of state power, but that is seldom the case in actual practice. So when I talk about institutionalized atheism, I am not talking about a society adopting atheism, I am talking about a society that is having atheism forced or pushed on them. Of course, one could point out that the real problem is not atheism but the use of force, however, I would contend that the use of force in this context is motivated in some way by the underlying atheism of officialdom.

    In manner of speaking, yes, but it's ultimately meaningless for an atheist to be a good person. Or a bad person.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    It's very simple and unavoidable. He was baptised a Catholic, and was never excommunicated.
    Whatever speculations you might produce from "historians" who could not know what he thought, the fact of his religion remains.

    News: Rich people paying rich people to tell middle class people to blame poor people.

    They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.

    Power is a fact of human political existence. Ideas kill.
