why not? A theist trying to spread the word is obviously fighting against disbelief.Your line of logic makes no rational sense a all. The literal meaning of "anti" is "against". So anti-theism is very much to be against theism. Proselytization has nothing to do with it.
I guess it takes time for people to accept differences.
Maybe it is the open, honest admission that we think you should reconsider belief in deities that shock you out of proportion?
Maybe you are indeed sure that all believers have something in common that we atheists or anti-theists literally can not understand or have not experienced.
I can however say with all honesty that I find such certainty exceedingly odd.
Lack of experience is rarely an advantage, and hardly ever a qualification to judge others. I hope you don't think I implied otherwise.
yes it works for me , and in that respect I went for it a long time ago , Antitheism as a veiw dosent trouble me personaly , but it does have effects these effects trouble me , ...again not in a personal way but because I see it trouble others and I see it attempting to undermine Theism .If that works for you, by all means go for it. But then I have to wonder, why does anti-theism trouble you at all? I still have little clue.
Promoting one idea does not necessitate fighting against another.why not? A theist trying to spread the word is obviously fighting against disbelief.
Indeed, and that is true for both sides. To be anti-theist does not necessitate fighting anyone any more than being theist does.Promoting one idea does not necessitate fighting against another.
To be an anti-theist is by definition to be against theism. This is the point I am trying to get across.Indeed, and that is true for both sides. To be anti-theist does not necessitate fighting anyone any more than being theist does.
Sure, and to be a proselytizing theist is to be anti-atheist.To be an anti-theist is by definition to be against theism. This is the point I am trying to get across.
Please show how proselytizing must be, by definition, anti-atheist. Explain your reasoning.Sure, and to be a proselytizing theist is to be anti-atheist.

You have not proven this statement. You need to show some actual evidence that all proselytization has a primary goal of reducing atheism.Well because it is an activity directed towards reducing the incidence of atheism.

So then atheists would never proselytise?
Why do atheists proselytize?

To the best of my knowledge that does not really apply here. Apex is not an Evangelical.
I was thinking that atheism is simply not believing in God... while anti-theism would be more of an aggressive attack of belief in God... that could mean a militant and systematic attack on religion and could have various forms.
I have seen in films that only the evil souls of vampires and demons die with their death. As an non-superstitious atheist, I do not believe in existence of souls. How come an anti-theist like you believes in them?Yes we do indeed have souls. They just don't fly off when we die. They die along with the Anti-theist or unless the Global Anti-Theistic Society of Earth decides to keep us on life support
