No, of course not. The buildings are useful, if not the teachings that are done inside them. I would make them into homeless shelters, or food kitchens and the like. Or maybe an center where theists can be un-indoctrinated and taught truth instead of spiritual nonsense. I'm not sure you can un-indoctrinate someone, maybe that isn't possible...

Most atheists and agnostics deal with rational thought. There is no logical reason to burn all churches. If Christians had their way, would all mosques be destroyed? If all Muslims had their way, would all churches be destroyed? The answer is no to both questions. In the future, it will help to think about your questions for a little bit, keeping in mind that atheists and agnostics base all action upon reason.

No. Agnostics don't place importance on religion and so don't really debate it. Atheists made it their view that there is no divine plan or supreme being. So no, neither camp would really care to burn a church down. I'm sure different Abrahmic religions who do the above described to each other though.

No. I think most atheists/agnostics are happy letting people believe what they want. Let me ask you this, If most Christians had their way, would they want all mosques to be burned down? Or this one, If all Muslims had their way, would they want all synagogues burnt down? (Not trying to offend, just proving a point)

Of course not. Athiesm says nothing about a hatred towards other religions, and I can't understand where you're even coming from with agnosticism. As athiests we just don't believe. We see nothing wrong with other people having a faith, we just don't think it's for us. As for agnostics, I guess burning down all the churches would certainly resolve thier questions of faith :)

No. Just not given the many special privleges they enjoy like tax exemption.
Why do theists think we're malicious animals? We're not the ones who set people on fire because someone pointed at them and screamed "witch!"

Absolutely not this atheist! I love churches. They have some of the most beautiful architecture in the world. The ppl that go to them mean well. I just don't want church in my public schools, my government or in my face.

Of course not! Atheists and agnostics aren't usually anti-religion, they just don't think churches are relevant to their lives. It is always the religious fanatic who wants to burn things.

christians are church
ille say that again because its a bit revolutionary christians are church we are the church.
now if the church building were all burnt down we would still have relationship with God and each other so dont worry lok at the history of the church (nows theres that word again try to think of it as a group of believers) in russia during communism they had no buildings mostly but they were the strongest church

Certainly not.
But I admit I enjoy the thought that some day, they may all be standing empty, or converted to schools or homeless shelters or something useful.

Atheists and agnostics are not the same thing.
So if all the Neocon/fundy/airheads had their way, would they want to burn all the libraries down?
