I wouldn't mind but things like women's rights, homosexual rights, and social justice I believed in when I was a Catholic (in spite of the Church), when I was a Buddhist, and when I was 'spiritual but not religious'. All of these issues have their own arguments completely independently of atheism or religion. I saw no connection at all.
Church-building, or more accurately patriarchy-building, is the biggest risk for all atheist organisations. Atheism Plus didn't succeed in avoiding it, which is a shame, they could have.
You're missing my point. I think the idea of forming an organisation under the umbrella of "atheism", a non-belief, and pretending that they have something in common other than a lack of a belief in a certain assertion, to be idiotic.

Btw you do know that gay has been the up to date word for homosexual since the 1970s don't you?
You know it doesn't make a differece?

I agree. Racists and islamophobes are arsewipes after all. Just you're not allowed to call racists arsewipes at Rationalia, let alone racists. And you call yourselves free?

To those who use homophobia tactically, I agree, it doesn't.

Are you saying that using the term "homosexual" is homophobic?
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I don't know how things are where you live. Maybe the term is frowned upon or used derogatorily, but here it's the same thing.
Get out of your bubble, brah.

No you are right. We can't call disingenuous arsewipes disingenuous arsewipes. I demand the freedom to call disingenuous arsewipes disingenuous arsewipes!
