Is it normal that i hate all the lgbt support?

The reason we atheists don't get support is because we made a conscious decision to be what we are.

Dude I'm gay and an atheist. I think you're just overreacting lol people accept atheism more these days.

I can totally understand where your coming from. You shouldn't listen to those people though. The athiests will have their day!!

I don't think the headline for this post does it any favours.

I agree that in some places atheists have a pretty shitty deal. I also agree that atheists need support just like LGBT people do.

But I don't think there is any reason to resent LGBT groups because they are more socially acceptable at the moment. I think the way to go is to make atheists more socially excepted.

That t-shirt thing was really messed up by the way. Someone should seriously get kicked in the ass for putting you in detention.

Most atheists don't have it as bad. I'm an atheist. I've always been an atheist. I've had a few religious people look totally shocked, and I'd never tell my Irish, Catholic grandmother that I'm an atheist, but no one's ever treated me badly because I don't believe.

HOWEVER if people knew I was bi... I don't think life would be worth living. Not where I live. Not now.

Uhhh... This one group gets lots of support, but this other doesn't, so I hate that group. What? Unless the people bashing you are mostly from the LGBT group (which would be super shitty of them) I don't really get it. I guess I get being slightly jealous, but hate?

Yes, atheism is a choice. Because we choose to actively go against religion and not be one if those infuriating agnostics.

Again, all the prior posters' complaints are based in projecting themselves as a discriminated minority. Think of your plight like this:

Triflin niggas who sat around and complained didn't get civil rights pushed forward, thoughtful, peaceful strong African Americans did.

Bitchy and catty fags didn't get gay rights pushed forward, violent drag queens and litigious power-gays did.

We see here that bitching about how hard your plight is does nothing to lessen it. Ergo someone like Richard Dawkins (or any of you butt-hurt moaners) won't help your cause...people like Phillip Pullman (writer), Emma Goldman (political activist), Che Guevarra (enough said), Thomas Edison (enough said), and Alan Turing (Father of computers) will.

LGBT groups are generally for LGBT people only. It's a more understanding environment because everyone comes from a certain standpoint. It can also be difficult to date if you're from a minority that can only date others of your minority (i.e. gay/bi) so being somewhere with higher odds of meeting someone else who is gay/bi seem to make sense.

They're not societies to trumpet the wonderfulness of all things LGBT. They're not for us and it doesn't have any impact on my life whether they exist or not. But I'm glad they do, for others' sake.

No no no no no. Let's clear the air.

There are plenty of Athiests, OP. Half of them don't admit it because they have to pretend to have a god for the benefit of their machiavellian purposes (ie: politicians and priests).
The majority of the rest don't talk about it because they're too busy doing things like curing cancer, planning NASA missions, and being the faceless masses that actually run their respective governmental systems.
Finally, there's a smaaaaall, tiiiiiiny minority of the majority minority that didn't get the memo to keep their head down and focus on getting wealthy. These people (such as yourself) bitch about how ostracized they are and are fed propaganda from Richard Dawkins.

This diorama of your subculture can be directly mirrored in the LGB community (Let's leave out Q and T in the interest of being truthful). There are the Politi-gays (ie the velvet mafia), the regular Adam and Steves/Madam and Eves (all struggling to go from middle to upper middle class and forget the amount of cocksucking they had to do to get to the top). Finally, there are the disgruntled huddled masses that are shut out of the party. The less than pretty ones. The fat stoners, the poor AIDS victims, the brown ones, the punks/goths/metalheads, and so on and so forth.

You, OP. Focus on yourself and being a solid tree in a crazy hurricane filled world. Don't be a pussywillow, whistling a mournful tune in the wind...be an Oak, howling your majesty to the four corners unto the point of death.

You shouldn't be against LGBT. As a bisexual atheist I can see both sides of your argument, but the LGBT cause really isn't detracting anything from atheism. It's probably a lot easier to be an atheist in England than in the USA though. Maybe you could start up a local atheist forum where likeminded people could talk and go on regular group outings? Granted it would take effort to get going, but if you really want it...

I understand. But perhaps it's stems from it not seeming fair.

Then you should get together with other people of similar interest and create support groups for what you feel passionate about.

As an atheist/agnostic myself, my belief as an atheist is that there is no "higher guiding hand" so don't depend on there being a support group to serve as a guiding hand.

Bottom line is most atheists don't care, but if you're going to rub it in peoples faces you should expect some backlash. You wearing a shirt like that would be like if a gay guy hit on every guy he saw, it's uncalled for.

I know your probably gonna say all the religious kids wear WWJD(Who Wants Jelly Donuts) shirts, but take the higher path instead. Don't flaunt or try to force your beliefs on others; if you do that you're just as bad as the thing you hate...that actually took me a little while to learn myself but it helped lol

If you really think they got a lot of support then you need to open your eyes.

They may have clubs and all that fancy crap, but that's because that's the only thing they have.

Instead of hating on a group of people, why don't you show empathy? You know what it's like to be hated on for who you are.

And guess what: I'm atheist and bisexual, and I get hated on more than all of you, but you don't see me bitching about why one group gets more love than the other.

And seriously, what rock have you been under? I've been on forums where thousands of people comment and atheists tend to be more loved than gays.

You need to grow up.
