"a real bomber wouldn't make his affiliations that obvious. #falseflag"

Or something like that.
 
They're blaming his exceedingly partisan rhetoric. And they're not wrong honestly. If you keep screaming half the country are the enemy of the people, some looney is bound to take action at some point.
True that. Extremist pricks should always be careful when they speak.
 
Much better from him. Almost thought it was from someone else until I saw the last sentence.
 
The feck is this about?

He was watching Fox and Friends again. And saw a person named Brandon Straka who says he was a liberal but as now walked away from the democrats and as started a movement for others to just walkaway . It's all very suspicious.
 
Global Atheism figures indicate that in 2020 less than 2% of humanity is atheist. So your statement is a bit of a stretch. Most of us don't know diddley diddley squad.

Stats? I've seen figures as high as 1 in 5.

2% seems far too low. I'd say that Chinese atheists probably break that barrier.
 
Vast swathe of China is atheist in name only, many practice folk religion and Buddhist derived religions. There is no concrete stats for number of atheist.

So 2% is wrong?

I may be living a weird life, but my world in London and Auckland involves around 70% aethiests.

I can't compute a number of 2% globally.

Maybe that's just an echo chamber in full effect.

I got my figures from wikipedia I have to admit :)

But in for instance Latin America or Asia a lot of people are religious arent they? I have the same echo chamber you do. Almost everyone I know is an atheist.

They always believes in something, the asians. It might be different with your typical christians/muslim/budhist. Alot is unheard of and has been mixed with local culture. Animism, totemism, polytheistic is still ripe in many asian country.

Indeed. Could be a base rate bias. The population of London and Auckland together is just a little over 0.1% of the world population. Even if your circle is 0.1% of the populations of London + Auckland, it is still a small base from which to estimate worldwide numbers.

I would say ~ 2% atheists worldwide sounds credible, considering the high levels of religiosity in Asia, Africa and South America.

I guess you should also differentiate the 'non-religious' from atheists; there are many more of the former.
