Nice thread, MIMS.
And as far as Myth 14 goes, the number of Christians in American prisons FAR outnumber the atheists.
Considering that the number of atheists in the nation is something like 12% and the number of atheists in prison is .2%, and the number of Christians of varying sects (not including Mormons and Scientologists is 79.1% ... well, you do the math. I don't like math.

hmm... where in the FSM's name are the theists to contradict any of the statements?
do they have no argument?
are they de facto agreeing that these are simply myths?

instead of ruining that thread with prejudice and ignorance.

I think this is a very good thread, and I think anyone who spouts one of those myths off in the future on ATS should be directed here in the future to debate it, instead of ruining that thread with prejudice and ignorance.

The Christians will never be convinced that those myths aren't true. These myths aren't something they make up on their own. It's part of the brainwashing they get as children.
my personal example: true, i want a world without religion... but i want a world that is VOLUNTARILY without religion. one where people are atheists who have come to the decision themselves.
The only thing I've seen Madness do is to try to dispel the myths about atheists. YOU may not feel this way, but I certainly have heard all of these myths before about atheists. In fact, whenever a Christian talks about atheists, these myths are what they believe atheism is about.
