In regards to christianity, I'd would join the forces of the fallen (Lucifer) one.

For he is a true friend of Man. Always has been helping him in it's ambitions, hopes and dreams!

What is this meme that Satan is your friend?

Like, atheists don't believe in Satan, so why go to the trouble of making jokes that he's a nice guy? It's fedora-level atheism tbqh.

Because that is all atheism ever amounts to on NSG. When they compare God with Khorne, then they’re not too far from comparing Him with Voldemort. We call that a farce.

Not really. You are accusing others of what you know you yourself are guilty of. Fairly textbook projecting.

Also, as is often the case, not really true. Atheists usually inherit most of their morality from their parents, like just about everyone else. Some of it may be reconsidered and reevaluated in light of their experiences, a lot of it isn't. This is typical for any adult.

Without God, there is no ultimate source for objective morality.

That is the point.

That is like saying that the friend who leashed your soul to his will, betrayed you, and turned 90% of your Thousand Sons Legion to dust is someone you want to be with.

I think you overestimate the effort it takes to makes these jokes.
But ultimately, it's just like making jokes about any other fictional character.

And you say that like it’s a bad thing.
Godulan Puppet #2, RPing as technologically advanced tribal society founded by mongols and vikings (and later with multiple other Asian and Native American cultures) motivated by an intrinsic devotion to the spirit of competition. They'll walk softly, talk softly, and make soothing noises as they stab you in the back and take your stuff... unless you're another Caleshan, whereupon they'll only stab you in the back figuratively!

Used NS stats: Population. That’s it. Anything else not stated in the factbooks is not used.

Intro RP: Gravity Ships and Garden Snips (involved tribes: Plainsrider, Hawkeye, Wavecrasher)
Current RP: A Rock Out of Place (involved tribes: Night Wolf, Deep Kraken, Starwalker)

Why should "atheist philosophy" (there is no such unified thing btw) attempt to make moral explanations of disasters? Of parasite wasps? Of ebola?

Well YHWH has roots in being Hebrew god of war so that's not that far of the mark.
But then again ancient monolatristic hebrews=/=modern christians.
