Atheism tending to be subservient to whoever’s in charge—some ostensible adherents of actual religions (apart from capitalism, though often as not in addition) actually do this worst of all—traditional moralists using a spiritualist front to promulgate their own subjective interpretation of religious doctrines so often result in dogmatic extremism (excluding the capitalist, for whom it is known as ‘good business’) they end up negating all one seeks to enforce.

True Reflections
A-bout
As two major approaches to
analysis of literary work and
the rather curious habit that
people have of speaking and
trying to figure out both has
led we here at `Philologicum
Aequaevum’ do undertake for
you readers - at not one bit
in cost to yourselves - even
if not a few deep thinkers there amongst (and dare we not
hoping those two could may-
be found residing with one’s
true frame?) prepared so on
the level, and is daily as that
serial—equally serious: Be a
series of attempt to essay &
summarize this current and
bi-polar, fractured state of
literary as if demographic’s
form of social trend or even
is a masturbatory exorcism
of myster-ious lan-gauge to
compel those fawning wants
should let us force i’to them
‘tell you th’ what must mean.’

Are you familiar with Marxist communism, libertarianism and the Cult of Rand?
Their ranks have many atheists and they are all quasi-revolutionary. Course, they are nuts, but they don’t fit your requirements either.

Dear Mr. Skinn-y,
Historically rather well aware of the 20th, but the
research is dated; libertarians I used to get pick-
ed by in on-line chat rooms—tho’ I greatly ad-
mire Howard Stern; last time I saw my niece, she
was fairly deep into Atlas Shrugged: There’s that.
As for ranking atheists—even military or a pair-
of—I assume by ‘quasi-revolutionary’ you intend
to mean they all have Che Guevara shirts and
don’t get very much sleep; real revolutionaries
tending to read a lot. And, thank you much Sam-
I-am-not, for raising the subject of our require-
meants, by which : We like people who respond.
Toodles,
Dum.th’Æ.
PS – W/he’ll forward your comments to Mike AV.
over at the center of inveterate subversion, thx.

Actually I meant the origionals- Lenin and his ilk.
Now in the US currently you don’t have atheists planning to overthrow the government because… I guess they still believe in elections.
Historically though atheists have been openly subversive when the government was a theocracy or based on “the divine right of kings” and acted just like everyone else when it isn’t.
For current times… the Maoist in Nepal are atheists. I don’t know if they would be characterized as good… they use terror and brutality to get their goals.
Honestly we don’t have many revolutions going on currently. In the US revolution is treasonous so, not surprisingly people who advocate it tend not to do so in public.
If you mean not accepting the status quo, read “A People’s History of the United States”. That is definately subversive (it would get you shot in a police state)- and its writter is an atheist.
