The terms freethought and freethinkers are oxymorons. Freethinker is a pretentious moniker that atheists/agnostics have dubbed themselves (See: Atheism and arrogance).
Research indicates that atheists are less open-minded (see: Atheism and open-mindedness).
There is no atheists/agnostics who are freethinkers. Jesus said, "He who sins is the slave of sin". See also: Atheism and morality and Atheist population and immorality
Jonathan Sarfati wrote: "We must also wonder why atheists call themselves ‘freethinkers’ if they believe thoughts are the results of atomic motion in the brain obeying the fixed laws of chemistry. By their own philosophy, they can’t help what they believe![1]
In addition, the atheist worldview has a number of beliefs that atheists commonly share (see: Atheism and beliefs).
Furthermore, most atheists fall on the left end of the political spectrum (see: Atheism and politics and Secular left).
Atheism and dogmatism
Research indicates that atheists are more likely to be dogmatic (see: Atheism and dogmatism and Atheism and open-mindedness).
Atheists and groupthink
See also: Atheism and groupthink
Groupthink is a psychological phenomenon that occurs within a group of individuals in which the quest for harmony/conformity within the group results in irrational and/or poor decision-making.
There are a number of notable cases of atheists engaging in groupthink (see: Atheism and groupthink).
