tl;dr - Atheism is a cult, blah blah blah

First you have to stop listening to BADlogic and his propaganda squad...

There is no "cult of atheism"

Atheism is not a religion, it is a lack of religion... it is a non-belief... there is no holy text, no gods, no dogma, no anything

There is almost zero organization to atheism... and that is only to battle religious crap like putting up 10-commandment statues and teaching religion in school, etc

It's like saying that people who don't believe in Santa Claus are in a cult and trying to ruin the world for everyone who does believe in Santa... it's just silly and stupid...

Where do people come up with this shit?

Is it simply projecting?  Because they are in a cult, they assume everyone is in a cult?

There are and have been a number of atheist cults and atheist groups which have had a cultish following. Some of these cults/groups still exist today. In 2015, FtBCon which is an online conference organized by the Freethought Blogs network, recognized that nonreligious/secular cults exist (for example, the atheist cult of objectivism).[1][2]

The atheist cults or atheist groups which have had a cultish following which have formed in history or exist today are often a result of factors such as: utopian thinking, fanatical devolution to various atheistic ideologies, a poor understanding of science/technology (or a penchant for materialist pseudoscientific thinking) and wishful thinking.

Also, although some of the groups listed below, which were founded by atheists/non-religious individuals are not entirely made up of atheists, they do have sizable atheist populations within them.

Your words have a huge share of truth, but if you look at the fact that the cult of atheism is beginning to develop very much, all these predictions in the future can really come true. Already today, all believers feel some negative consequences of all this.

But it's the religious mindset that makes people ignorant lazy and stupid.

Almost every religious person I know is fat, ignorant and stupid. So there goes your stupid beliefs.

I'd say let the religions die, they are a horrible thing. I have stopped believing in the bullshit when I was a kid, I guess I was too smart that I figured out it's all nonsense.

Humans are the ones doing the damage, not religion. Some people uses religion as an excuse in the negative things that they do and some tend to misinterpret the meaning of what they are reading and what their religion stands for. This is due to the fact that no matter how faithful and religious we are, sometimes, the people that leads the church and even ourselves are tainted with our being human and worldly thoughts. Moving on, religion won't die so long as there are people who continues to practice and allow to be guided by religion.

I believe that religions are almost dead. Only a few still try to control others with the help of religions, but modern society no longer lends itself to their influence and is guided only by science.

Each one of us have a religion because it tells here where do we believe. I think religion will not be die. When a couple get married their child will have a religion that he will be believe in his whole life. Religion will not be die because the parents will pass it to their child.

Religions made a lot of damage to human beings and our world in general. I'm not talking only about Islam, but every kind of religion, more or less, caused lots of problems.

I'm sure they will end. They won't last forever. But how will they end?

Which could the scenario that leads to their disappearance?
