I just noticed that there are a TON of atheist on Reddit.

[mai72]

Lets compare:..

Atheism: 2.8m members
Christianity: 387k members
Islam: 259k members
Hinduism: 146k members
Buddhism: 673k members

Is this where all the cool angry internet kids hang out today? In the Reddit atheism forums? I'm actually an agnostic atheist myself. Just surprised there are so many on Reddit. That is probably because atheist don't have a central meeting place, like a temple, mosque or church. Also, surprised to see so many Buddhist, but my hunch is many of those Buddhist are also probably atheist as well. Since Buddhism isn't about god worship, so its easy to be both atheist and a practicing Buddhist.

Quality above quantity, thats why Satanists are such a low number.

That assessment does make sense, but I don’t see why practicing buddhists would be on atheism forums. Some buddhist sects also worship Buddha as a god though. Mostly the Chinese division I think
Edit: maybe I misread this lol

Pretty sure that's impossible.

An atheist believes there is nothing, while an agnostic believes there is no way of knowing that there is nothing.

I'm just making an assumption. I can't be sure this is correct, but I'm mostly talking about people who treat Buddhism in the philosophical sense. I know in my case, I reject the supernatural aspects of Buddhism like reincarnation, building merit, and karma, but I adhere to the other Buddhist aspects like meditation, no self, non attachment, the 5-aggregates, why we tend to suffer.

The large number of members leads me to believe that many Buddhist are also active on the atheist sub Reddit. I mean why would the other religions have a very small sub count? The conclusion is many atheist are also signed into the Buddhist forums as well. That is just a hunch though. I could be wrong. And finally, I am aware that there are Buddhist sects who treat the Buddha as a god. He is often referred to as lord Buddha.

i think most of these people are confused what they believe in since most people just use it like some book club, they might say they are christian but are actually atheist and vice versa. i never seen much difference bw people based on their stated "belief".

[Ysosrscat]

By definition the reddit midwit is a secular regime bootlicker so of course they are atheists.

Furthermore reddit rigs as such people always are prone to, any religious groups are infiltrated, censored and purged.

There is no integrity on reddit. just operand conditioning of conformist liberal opinions.

[Dracoco OwO]

I don't label myself an atheist but that's what i pretty much are, however i cannot say i care enough about religions to compare my faith or lack thereof to others.

Hard to believe in a god existing when reddit exists. Its like how people find it shocking Satanists don't believe in ♥♥♥♥♥, only Christians do. (In Satanism hell is ruled by several different kings and no one of them is above the other)

In that 2.8M atheist, I believe whoever wins the lottery will scream "Oh My God"

[Faster With Feeling]

And why is this a problem?

first world problems hey?

[TwisterCat]

Go figure, the most unhinged mainstream site in the world is full of atheists.

Worth noting, probably less than 1000 of those 2.8 million atheists are actually willing to discuss anything with you. They're unhinged and dogmatic. The most hostile bunch on the site.
