I’m not religious but I’m a massive Trump and Q follower. I see lots Christians on the board, any other atheists around here?
How do you view the religious factor in the Q movement?

I think an important distinction is the difference between atheism and anti-theism. Atheism, at its definition, is “without religion” and isn’t meant to be the snarky Reddit bullshit of nitpicking religious people’s ways. Most online atheists are actually anti-theists, meaning they just want to badmouth religion and view it as beneath them.
From the sound of it, you don’t seem like the second type. I actually started off reading about all this as a pretty rocksolid atheist for almost 25 years of my life. But. I have to say, looking more and more into this I felt a turn to faith. Not in the organized sect, mind you…just getting to think that this fight is ultimately good vs evil. And trusting that good will win has gotten much easier for me. I thank this site, fellow patriots, and God for that.
Feels wild to say.
That's not true... Atheists don't believe there is a god.
As an atheist, I get really tired of the mislabeling and the misunderstanding of the position. It's essentially a lack of belief. It's not the statement that there is no god, it's a belief that there isn't.
This is the "New" Atheism's definition. After Anthony Flew (the last of the true intellectual atheists), they had to redefine their position because defending a negative is too hard to do.
How could anyone state anything absolute about things that are unprovable? This is why it's a belief. We're talking about things we can't measure, observe and repeat. It's all within the realm of speculation.
That's incorrect. Atheism is the belief there is no God. Not the position that there isn't.
I don't believe there is a god. <----Atheism
That's different than...
There is no god.
