Those who submit to REDDIT under Atheism seem to think that there are no intelligent beings on the Earth barring them.
I had blogged how Reddit ridicules Religion through the mouth of Child.
I have received a comment stating that in the US/Europe, there is paucity of Culture and people whom one can to on Religion and hence the intemperate submissions.The people seem to be yearning for Truth and there is none over there to guide them!
REDDIT, the self-styled trend setter off free cyber views is known for its publishing of views of its readers, even if the are down right offensive and childish , some times both t the same time.
This freedom of Expression Champion would not have you commenting on the US stories!
Its stories appearing under Atheism are out right Rude and one gains the impression that the Atheists are insensitive and hare-brained.
To be an Atheist or a Sceptic in one thing but being intolerant , incohesive and down right rude is another.
See a childish story below.
“My seven year old said “I’m atheist!”. I responded with “Why?“. After thinking for a minute, she came back with “Because they didn’t prove God and Jesus existed, and even if he was real, Jesus couldn’t walk on water, because they proved that wrong on Mythbusters! Adam had floaty shoes, but couldn’t move without paddles!”
So, my seven year old is now an atheist because of Mythbusters. Hooray for Adam and Jamie.
EDIT: Wow. Thank you all for the overwhelmingly positive response! 🙂 I’ve shared a few with my daughter, and she is incredibly embarrassed (in a good way). I never expected feedback to this incredible extent, so thank you!”
How an abstract thought can be treated with levity and mockery!
REDDIT abounds in these.
Now comes a complaint that Islam and Mohammed are beong ridiculed in REDDIT.
True.
But Islam contributes to these types of views by its history of violence and intolerance.
Best is to ignore the juvenile views of some of the readers of reddit.

Attention Muslims of the world: Better get your Muslim-ing in ASAP because atheist users of Reddit have decided to “go after”your puny religion. Rest in peace, Islam. You had a good thousand-and-a-half-or-so years but you’re no match for image macros and rage comics.
The atheism section of Reddit is a popular venue for insufferable non-believers to swap screenshots of the interminable Facebook comment flame wars they wage against their fundamentalist friends and Christian relatives. No religious-themed Facebook post will go un-commented on by these fearless logic warriors. But now Reddit’s atheism brigade has turned the full brunt of its attention to Islam, after a user claiming to be an ex-Muslim asked for their help.
Finally, someone on the internet will criticize Islam!
Often these sorts of campaigns end up in a frantic fundraising drive, but it looks like thebus monitor lady has used up all the internet’s money-raising mojo for the week. Instead, anti-Islam memes are flooding the front page of Reddit; Lolcats for people who sleep with a copy of God Is Not Great under their pillow. There’s a “Scumbag Muslim”meme, and a “Most Interesting Mohammed”meme, and this cartoon about how Islam has been “raping children for 1400 years” that is like something your 75 year-old racist great uncle would forward to you in an email. In fact a lot of the memes that Reddit users have been voting to the front page in their supposedly witty “war” on Islam are predicated on the same gross stereotypes of Muslims as rampaging terrorist-rapists favored by the likes of the shithead Pastor Terry Jones. There’s even a similar obsession with burning the Quran. (That last picture also happens to use a Hindu to represent a Muslim. But what the hell, they’ve all got turbans.)
Atheists on Reddit decrying a religion as the practice of intolerant douchebags is as ridiculous as… well, atheists on Reddit decrying a religion for treating women like shit.”
Self Promotion seems to be the bane for these sites who think they have a moral superiority,feigned of course; real reason is they want to earn at other’s expense and time.
Even if you consider the traffic of the sites, you will notice that the Story Collecting Sites get referred to from your site and they build their hits.
When these sites take your story, the link you submit appears under their url, where the original site you have submitted is relegated to the back ground.
In fact when you submit a story these sites get more hits than yours.
Commercially speaking, the sites to which you submit your stories get more hits than yours even after them referring to your site.
And no news is original excepting the event.
It is being handled by multitude of people in the print media and electronic media.
So shall we stop with the first report of the event?
My view is that these Story Sharing Sites must allow Bloggers to submit their site stories which may be based on other stories published, in their own interest.
A few weeks ago, the LA Weekly wrote a story about Marks and the unbelievable chain of events that led to his incarceration. Marks had been filming a Los Angeles Unified School District police officer engage in a scuffle with a 15-year-old at a bus stop (ostensibly because the kid was smoking a joint) when the police approached him and arrested him at gunpoint.
The 15-year-old—who was hit with Officer Erin Robles’ baton and sprayed with mace—was released quickly. Marks was charged with “attempted lynching of a police officer,” allegedly for yelling “kick her ass” during the fight, and put in jail. Here’s one video of the fight (there’s another here; both courtesy the Weekly):
Please watch the video.This is not a film shooting.Two guys are cabinet ministers in Tamil Nadu,India;one of them is the Health minister.
One more gentleman is Health Secretary,Note the the way the bear themselves.
In another footage shown by Times Now, a popular English News Channel you would notice a photographer merrily clicking picture.
Those who feel strongly about this please visit M.k.Stalin,the Deputy CM of Tamil Nadu’s website and express your feelings.http://www.mkstalin.net/index_eng.php This act is worse than ethnic cleansing.
Can not the Supreme Court , suo moto take action against these Ministers Collector and Health Secretary for gross disregard to human life and abetment to murder?
