While I personally think the wording "fascisim" doesn't really apply to militant atheists, I think that the point BOR was trying to make was (perhaps) was that atheists remind him of facists.

Christians turned the other way while fascists murdered millions of people. I don't think it is an appropriate comparison.

Not all, a nd atheist states have murdered millions more--Soviet Union, Communist China, North Korea, Cuba. Atheist ideology is one of the main reasons I was born in the USA, and not Cuba.

It would be as fair as doing so with atheists that behave similarly. It is the mindset behind the behavior that is wrong, rather than whether or not someone is a person of a religious faith, or of none at all.

Unfortunately, the subject of religion does tend to bring out the worst in people -whether they are for it or against it.
A fanatical atheist can be as big a pain in the backside as any religious zealot you have ever met.

As an atheist, I generally keep it to myself and don't "preach" atheism to others. I do feel that if a religious person tries to share their views with me, it is only polite and fair to expect to listen to my views.
On the other hand, it is very frustrating to see grown, intelligent people base important life decisions and morals on a book of fairy tales, genies, & imaginary friends.
