I find labels like “antitheist, “faitheist,” “firebrand,” and “diplomat” to be superficial. So does that make me an antitheist? I don’t know, and I really don’t care. I’ve seen way too many progressive Christians turn it into another form of shame. even though I’m happy to work with progressive believers for secular social justice work, progressive religion still has a lot of fucked up theology. That doesn’t mean religious people are fools most of them just don’t know you can have a fulfilling life without a god. There is literally no need for religion in the 21st century. Plus, shortly before deconverting, I was (loosely) involved with the liberal Christian scene, so I knew not all Christians were fundamentalists. After seeing so many angry atheist trolls online, I didn’t want to join their camp. Sometimes it’s having conversations with people who disagree with me, and sometimes it’s telling them they’re full of shit. Sometimes it includes calling out religion’s bullshit, and sometimes it’s working with a religious person for a common goal. I just do whatever I can to make the world a less shitty place.
