They always want proof, but they never prove atheism is right. what's up with that?

I don't think anyone on this forum has said that, so no.

Atheism isn't a belief, there is nothing to prove.

I can't tell if this is a shitpost or if you're just having trouble articulating your thoughts.

Atheists believe to be persecuted using a term called the Christian Persecution Complex

We do?

but then say that feminists aren't persecuted and are only making it all up

Nope.

Quote

despite their argument against feminism also applying to themselves: that persecution in the western world is so little that it is negligible.

Nope.

Your own butthurt is showing.

None of the things you listed are unique to atheism, or related to atheism. It's all entirely independent from the lack of belief in a deity.

Because there's literally no proof that God doesn't exist. It has never, and will never exist. You can't prove that (x) doesn't exist if (x) cannot be observed to begin with.

burden of proof is on those who make fantastical claims, not those who are skeptical.

No.

The most persecuted religious group on the planet, currently, is Christians.

I shiggy diggy.

I think you're generalizing there, buddy. Not all Atheists think that Feminism is bullshit, and some prominent Atheists are self-described Feminists.

I think it's mostly the Libertarian Atheists that say things like that.
