The website Mic indicates concerning atheist stereotypes:
| “ | Atheist — does the word give you pause? Make your eyes narrow a bit? Conjure up images of immorality and pugnacious heathens? For a surprising number of Americans, the answer is still, well, yes.
According to data from a recent Pew study, while political polariziation is at its highest intensity in 20 years, the person Americans really don't want their family members bringing home for dinner is neither a Republican nor Democrat. It's someone who doesn't believe in God... Here are seven of the more prominent, problematic stereotypes about atheists: 1. Atheists are pacifists who don't fight America's wars... 2. Atheists are all white men... 3. Atheists are immoral hedonists... 4. Atheists are arrogant and aggressive proselytizers... 5. Atheists are angry at God and want to destroy religion... 6. Atheists believe the universe is all a big coincidence... 7. Atheists want to ban Christmas.[1] |
