As a truly euphoric neck beard, I'd like to clarify that my nation does not believe in such a phony creature.

Nope nope nope, what I mean is if religious people are trying to control government or trying to take responsibility, we should shoot that down.
No religious anything should be tied to any institution with influence over the public


Well, that's just ridiculous.

Then again, I rather like the idea of a caesaropapist regime.

Like homophobia, which is almost entirely religiously motivated. I have not seen a single atheist argue against homosexuality, however I see plenty of religious folk doing it, I even know plenty of ones that do. Even the bible says gays need to be stoned

The discrimination of atheists is also mostly religiously motivated, although not entirely, there is a stigma against us because of the idea that religion is somehow virtuous.

Well, a lot of things causes plenty of other problems. That isn't limited to religion. Take a hammer for example. In the wrong hands, a potentially lethal weapon. In other hands, a tool build shelters for a family. Same with guns, knifes, cars, and so on.
And some problems might be more prevalent in religion, but that doesn't make them inherent to it. You can have religion without homophobia, as I said there are both homosexual who are Christians and pastors who are homosexual. And other religions have no problem with homosexuality whatsoever, for example the classical Greek pantheon.
And the stigma of atheists is I'd imagine a different form of people being suspicious towards other people that are not like them. I would say it's not right either, but blaming religion for that isn't right either. Two wrongs don't make a right.

The prime discriminatory against atheists always seem to be Christian apologists or religious people in general. I'm not blaming religion, I blame the tribal mentality against atheists that religion has unintentionally caused in America

Dude, i'm in high school and i get bullied nearly every day about being an atheist.
I get targeted online too.
so yes, i am saying that atheists are discriminated against by theists.
Persecuted? not really anymore. They can't burn us or torture legally anymore, they still do in the middle east though

In some (rather backwards) places, this may be true. Take the ISIS as example. They're targeting whomever they consider an "infidel", which includes everyone who's not a fanatic Sunni extremist like themselves.

Luckily, in most of Europe and of the Americas, this isn't the case anymore. We may have cases of theists severely trolling atheists, but nothing that amounts to "persecution".
