Presumably not.
However, throughout history these stories about Jews were regarded as facts. Now you know better and it seems ridiculous that people ever believed such lies, right?
So why, even with a history of buying into patently false misinformation about other beliefs do I continue to see misconceptions about atheists related as if they were true?
"Atheists are sad, atheists are boring, atheists are angry, atheists can't love, atheism is the same thing as hedonism, atheists lie, atheists have no concept of morality..."
It's not quite the same as thinking we have horns, but it is the same basic idea.
From where does this flood of misinformation stem? Why does it seem like our constant rebuttals to these falsehoods fall on deaf ears?
What would it take for you to see that we are people and not so dissimilar from you?
