This guy's a moron. If you're in a foxhole, you pray to god because you're scared, it is not criticizing atheists at all.

@mynameisnyhm absolutely it is. it's a saying to diminish that there is no such thing as Atheism, by saying there are no Atheist in foxholes Theist make the presumption Atheism isn't really, and their particular sky daddy is.

If there are no atheists in foxholes, does that mean only theists wage war?

[buffpants22]

@robtbo i believe it does

Look, I'm an atheist as well, but when you insult them, don't you sink to their level. Also, this is more a statement about foxholes than atheists. The statement doesn't deny atheism, it just says war is hell. Man, you need to stop taking things the wrong way. Unless you're trolling us, if so, I applaud, because you're doing a pretty good job

"There are no atheists in foxholes" is not a comment against atheists as much as it is a comment against foxholes.

Yup, there are as many theist in libraries as there are atheists in foxholes. Sounds about right.
