I don't have blanket hostility to Atheists or anyone else. If the same applies2Islam, we're good.

But 'Muslims' is equivalent to 'atheists.' Islam & atheism are ideas u can dislike.

imagine a dismissive tweet starting with AH, MUSLIM. It would be unacceptable to everyone here.

if you had attacked "atheism" instead of "atheists" he probably would have engaged in lively debate.

So I make a post about how we should not be at war with Islam & he comes in against it, saying it's fair game.

Yes. Its OK for sceptics to regard faith as a problem & argue against it vigorously & for the faithful to do same.

This is how ideas evolve - by being challenged by opposing ones. What is not OK is attacking Muslims or atheists.

Or religious ppl can promote faith & criticise disbelief but sceptics can't promote scepticism & criticise faith?
