    I posted this on the wrong echo, and I did apologize there.

    But I am wondering why atheists don't go after Islam as much as they do with Christians. Should they be
    just as equally atheist and go after the Dearborn Michigan city government just as much as a Christian
    dominated government locally or regionally?

    I wonder that, too. I guess they think that, right now, Christian fundamentalists are the bigger danger to their religious freedom. I think that is a mistake, though. From what I can tell, Islam fundamentalists not any more accepting of non-believers than Christian ones are.

    In other words, both are potential threats to their religious freedom so
    they had better keep an eye on both and hold both accountable.

    I also wonder if we are getting the wrong impression, from the media, about what upsets atheists, and also whether or not those atheists being most vocal on social media are bots that are trying to stir up unrest in our country.

    This is more than likely exactly the problem. Bots/AI

    I have little doubt that is the case.
