The rule I set for myself is that I treat atheists the same as I would treat an adherent to any other religion, which is, I would not attack their beliefs unless there is something that suggest willingness on their part to converse on the subject, in which case I will explain why I am right and they are wrong.
A car covered with bumper stickers about religion seems like an invitation to speak to the owner about religion. Unless the bumper sticker is an insult, in which case it is a case of hooliganism oddly ignored by the cops who should prevent such things.
But, atheists would say, ours is emphatically not religion. Ours is absence of religion.
Then the question arises: we know what a Christian monument is, or a Muslim one, or a Bhuddist one. What would an Atheist monument be?
What would an atheist bumper sticker be?
The answer is, an atheist monument is absence of a monument. An atheist bumper sticker is absence of a bumper sticker. Since that is not satisfying to some atheists, instead of proclaiming their atheism they need to vandalize my monuments or insult my religion. May be, after all, we should just jail them.
You think the cops should be policing bumper stickers?
Oh, yeah, okay. [rolls eyes]
