Atheism and the Internet, what's happening? Well Atheism is winning.
Indoctrination of children
The different religions no longer monopolise indoctrination of children and teens as they used to and this is a factor in the decline of religion.
Secular online communities
At all ages American atheists who feel marginalised in their own communities can connect with other atheists and secularists online. American atheists connect with others from the United States and with atheists from other parts of the world where secularism is acceptable. Atheists worldwide can connect online with others who share their beliefs and this promotes the confident New atheism.
Secular and religious websites
- The various religions have a massive online presence and many Christian websites as well as websites promoting other religions are clearly expensively designed using copious donations from the enthusiastic faithful.
- By contrast secular websites don't impress because they were expensive to produce, this website has to accept advertisements for example.
- Secular websites impress because their arguments are reasonable and even the expensive PR firms that Christians employ can’t cover that up.
