Atheism is popular in communities like ours. Is it popular?
Atheism is very popular in real life.

Less than 1% of people in the world, I reckon.

Less than 15% in the West, I reckon.
lolno, you're way off

14% in the world, 22% in America. Which, when you consider it, is a fairly large number.

Sauce?

Anyways, I wouldn't really say that's "popular".

IRL the vast majority of people don't care if you like anime. What's going to matter to people is what kind of person you are.

They're still going to think it's weird. I'm not saying they'll avoid you or something like that.

It's like when I say that I like Pokรฉmon -- no one really cares, but most people think "You're 17, you shouldn't be playing Pokemon. It's weird."

Or you're just paranoid. People really couldn't care less if you like playing pokemon at the age of 17.

Or you're just paranoid.

Or you're just in denial.

You're giving people too much credit.

Between 2% and 11% worldwide, and about 7% in the US.

All talk of different stats, no sauce.

And none of these numbers constitute "popular", IMO.

It's actually 16% worldwide. And yes, when you consider that Christianity is only 33%, that is very popular.

"Non-religious" doesn't count.

I want straight-up "atheist".

Fuck that. Non-religious and atheist are straight-up synonyms. If you don't believe in god, you're an atheist. I don't buy into that Reddit atheism shit.

non-religious=/=doesnt believe in a deity. could just mean they dont want to associate with organized religion. you're not analyzing that data properly.

I don't really care what you buy into. That sauce doesn't differentiate between agnostic and atheist, so it is an irrelevant statistic.

"Survey participants were asked to answer how familiar they were with anime as a style of animation. Among the five choices of extremely familiar, very familiar, moderately familiar, somewhat familiar, and not at all familiar, only 19.4 percent of the participants said they were not at all familiar with anime. Most of them acknowledged that they were somewhat familiar with anime at 32 percent. In response to another question, 40.8 percent of them said that they still watched anime as adults."

All these mental gymnastics just to keep believing that atheism is some fringe belief. Keep deluding yourself.

And by the way, calling sources "sauces" makes you sound like some cringy T3h P3nguin of Doom!! person

Not at all. The initial argument here was that atheism is some borderline belief that only exists on the Internet. That's obviously false.

the statistics disagree with you. ive already explained that you are misinterpreting the data. just in case you missed it, ill link this again.

2.4% in america identify as atheist as of 2012 according to this particular poll. the ratio of those who arent affiliated with a religion is 19.6% in 2012 but do not conflate that with atheism.
