An interesting fact: Ayaan Hirsi Ali is an atheist, aka normal person. I recommend her book "Infidel".
Are you suggesting that religious people are not normal?
In the 21st century that's true. It's not normal to believe in supernatural nonsense. We know things these days.
Why is it that some atheists (among whom I count "some of my best friends") often feel they must become as loudly and insistently intolerant as some religious fanatics?
Why should I tolerate ridiculous fantasies which I know are wrong? Also look at what religion has given the world, women treated like farm animals, out of control violence, brainwashing, and in America a religious war against teaching science especially evolution. I'm suppose to tolerate this Dark Ages nonsense?
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
