Definitely not good news for atheists
The information about atheism contained in this article is definitely not good news for militant atheist evangelists: The Creation and Earth History Museum and the Question Evolution! Campaign are teaming up! I think it is time for evolutionists to get used to the idea of their pseudoscience being ripped to shreds and devoured. Things definitely do not look for atheism and evolutionism.Conservative 05:24, 10 May 2012 (EDT)

None of the articles that cited for the decline of atheism provided any surveys or peer-reviewable research that indicates that. Most studies that I have seen have said the exact opposite, that atheism is a growing global movement. I think that this claim that atheism is on the decline is highly questionable and ought to be deleted until peer-reviewed surveys can show otherwise.
Reddit atheism
/r/atheism
/R/atheism has become an echo chamber for hate speech against Christians and Conservatives in the United States. Currently, it has become a place for the Secular Student Alliance to raise funds to ban God from the public square, particularly schools, and promote left wing politics. I need help constructing a page about /r/atheism. I have added it to /r/reddit, but because of its size I think it warrants its own page.

Ayn Rand was an atheist and is a major inspiration to the libertarian right and the Tea Party, why is she being ignored?
There have been atheist right-wingers like Ayn Rand who is an inspiration to the libertarian right such as the Tea Party. She rejected the concept of God and religion for being in her view totalitarian and for not placing freedom and responsibility in the hands of individuals. You cannot place Ayn Rand's atheism in the same category as communist totalitarian atheism for instance. People have different reasons for being atheists - people who have gone to a church where a corrupt pastor has led the church may become atheist because they were totally aggravated with the experience of religion as preached by the corrupt pastor. So why are atheism and all atheists being pigeonholed as being akin to communist totalitarians? Why is Ayn Rand's libertarian version of atheism ignored?--TheQuestioner 12:10, 3 August 2012 (EDT)
