Before you answer, remember that atheism itself isn't a principle, cause, philosophy, or belief system which people fight, die, or kill for.... like christianity is. .Communists don't kill in the name of atheism.

Good question!
People are quick to call that Communism/Atheist connection into the fray,millions of people have been killed in the name of Atheism...
"How So?" you ask,millions were killed for not letting their Atheism go,rejecting the status quo religious beliefs...

To first approximation zero.
There might have been a few who killed because of atheism and who weren't motivated by something else more important to them but I don't know of any.

I really don't think there is much of a communist threat anymore. The USSR was not communist. Similar, but very different. Christianity has never had it so good. Your idea of Atheism is way off base. Read about Atheism for yourself instead of quoting the regurgitated myths you have been taught, none of it true.

Well aside from a few nutjobs. No mass killings have been made in Atheism's name.
I have to admit that Pol Pot's killings had alot to do with Atheism though. Damn reds.

None that I can think of...
Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think most kill to enforce there belief in no god. Maybe a few crazies, but nothing massive.

None at all whatsoever. Unlike religion, atheism is very peaceful.

Probably none, but the bible lists hundreds of thousands (if not millions) killed by God or from God's commands.

You are right in saying atheism is nothing.

Atheists are scared as sh!t to die, that's why. A bunch of babies. There isn't anything worth fighting for with Atheism, it's a pit of nothingness for people who cannot expand their minds beyond that of which they phisically see.
