Atheistic Style

There is a style common to many atheists, including:

1. a refusal to recognize how democracy relies on Christianity, and how no atheistic culture has ever managed to sustain a lasting democracy
2. a refusal to credit the role played by faith in great contributions of many people, such as Isaac Newton
3. a general disbelief of unseen and unquantifiable concepts, such as love, intrinsic beauty and fidelity
4. a belief that atheists are somehow smarter than those having faith, downplaying contributions by Christians
5. a belief that humans are smarter today than 100 and 1000 years ago
6. a view that most of science is known and understood, in contrast to Isaac Newton's view that little is understood
7. a focus on materialism, and a devotion to relativism in many forms
8. a generally pessimistic, worthless and depressing view of life
9. among scientists, an unshakeable faith in never-detected gravitons, black holes, dark matter, super strings and life in outer space
10. belief in the Nobel Prize, universities and newspapers as oracles of truths
11. overreliance on hearsay, a perception (often wrong) of what most people think, and a dependance on often outdated texts.
12. an insistence on censoring prayer from the classroom
