Today I reviewed an issue regarding the state religion. The background for it was noting that despite the state (non)religion as atheism, some of the populace were still religious and what should be done about this. It provided three options, one that sanctioned religion, one that put all of the religious in death camps and a third, less extreme, option that was to educate children on the facts of life. I chose the third option as I feel death camps are wrong and I am fully anti-religion. However, this third option for education resulted in a boost to spirituality and the revocation of my atheism policy. As a result, there was only one option that did not result in loss of atheism and that was killing off all of the religious in death camps.
Now, I have to consider killing off all the religious in my nation, not because I want to, but because Nationstates seems to support the idea that hyper-militant atheism is the correct way to go about eliminating religion rather than having intelligent discourse. I feel as though that issue needs a serious reworking to prevent an extreme like that from being the only tenable atheist position.
