We dont really criticize many people. Its people in other religions that try to press there ideas on us and cause us to act out.

It is with Christians and only one group in particular. I try to engage in discussions with other religions. The reason for this is because out side the Metro station I take each morning 4 to 5 Christians come up to me and ask if I have found Jesus, then attempt to convert me. They are very polite when they tell me when I will not make to heaven unless I sign up to their belief system.
My patience becomes thin at times and I start over-generalizing and criticizing all Christians when it is really the 4 to 5 people who camp out at the entrance to the Metro.

I don't think atheists in general criticize any one faith over another. It depends on where they live in the world, and how intrusive a particular religion is on their lives.
In America, atheists probably discuss christianity the most because that is what they are most exposed to and, of course, would be the largest audience to speak to. However, that wouldn't be true for atheists in India or Saudi Arabia.

I criticize Christianity the most because I am surrounded by it and Christian leaders are trying very hard to enact laws or policies that will affect me or my family. If I were in Turkey, say, I would be critical of Islam. If I were in Israel, I would be criticizing Judism.

I dont think athiest criticize people but they seem to think their smarter than people who follow religion. I my self am catholic and i dont know if my religion is the right religion but i do know that when i die i can have some sort of comfort that i may go to a better place. And if im wrong like athiest beleive the ill just die a god beleiveing fool that didnt know any better.

I'm an atheist. I don't think I "criticize" anyone. I respond to questions. If they tend to be more "christian" then that would be the answer.
In real life? I don't critisize many at all. Too much negativity is a drain on everyone around me.

the harshest criticism can only come from a christian, whether against atheists or other religions....
that's only a generalization though

Buddhists don't care. Hindus have too many gods to believe in, so what's another belief like atheism should matter. Islam probably doesn't like Genesis because it's used by the Jews and Christians so they become friends with atheists because of a common foe.

I say Christians attack them the most. But not all Christians do.. YOU MUST KEEP THAT IN MIND 100%
I am friends with Atheists. I have no problem. I find them to be smart, And frankly some of my most refreshing conversations have been with them without getting a "You will burn in hell" kinda response~
I think they are very smart people, They understand some people are religious and some people are not. As long as you do not bother them they will be cool with you!

I mostly educate christians, as that is my background and they are here in the largest numbers.
After that:
muslims
scientology
Mormons
JW... in that order.
I would be happy to help educate those of any and all religious faiths, because all gods are imaginary, and it is just as easy to argue against a god I've never heard of as it is to refute all the gods I've heard of.
