No matter our differences, we can all agree that belligerent midwit atheists are the most insufferable of all cunts.

I have a thought on this. 1) I have never heard this expressed so thank you and I think I mostly agree, and want to expand.
I have a relative who is "atheist" . He also had a very unfortunate set of circumstances before he was even born. The most polite way of putting it is he's disabled to a point. And mentally he might not be entirely there either but that's up for debate. And I think sometimes he resents his existence. He's made remarks about abortion (he's very pro abortion). I had to remind him that by his own standards, he'd have been a prime candidate for abortion has his mom had shared his current views.
It rattled him I think.
A weeb Japanese book (Welcome to the NHK) actually approached this topic once.
In that you can find peace by believing in God and then hating him. In that, you recognize there is a God, but there is also horrible injustice and suffering so he must be an "evil God."
But because God is "evil" you can push the blame for most of life's hardships onto him. You no longer need to obsess with fairness or luck, you can just say "fuckin' God man, what an asshole" and move on with life.
Its something alien to a lot of Westerners and our monotheism, but once you've thought about it in that manner I think a lot of people would benefit from that kind of faithless religion.
Its the difference between saying "fuck you" to the king, versus saying "fuck you" to any individual peasant. So yeah, the monotheism likely plays a huge part.
