There seem to be a lot of double standards that I see in the so called atheist/skeptic community. So called “New Atheists” have very often acted very cult like in their assertions that, simply because they don’t believe in God, they have a monopoly on reason. I actually agree with them for the most about religion and secularism, although not necessarily their staunchly materialist and anti-spiritual ideas, but the main problem I see with the New Atheists is their refusal to question state narratives. In fact, many New Atheists have been warmongers, for example Christopher Hitchens supporting the Iraq War and Sam Harris suggesting a preemptive nuclear strike on Iran. They have also, because of their ethnocentric view of Islam, often been supportive of the War on Terror and bought into the “clash of civilisations” narrative. They posses the religious conviction that whatever the state does is right, and questioning it’s intentions constitutes tacit support for the terrorists. Now, when it comes to events such as the attacks on September 11th, the double standards of these so called skeptics becomes blindingly clear. They have to this day not explained the collapse of WTC 7, the impossible phone calls, the nano-thermite, the speed at which the planes flew, the apparent stand down order, and many other inexplicable things from that day, and yet they believe that blind faith in the official story despite all the evidence constitutes “skepticism”. This is not skepticism, this is religious devotion. True skeptics question everything, and this is not being done here. There are many other false religions and deities that so called “atheists” and “skeptics” believe in, this barely scratches the surface. These are not rational atheists. They are deeply religious polytheists without even realising it.
