I hereby petition Reddit to remove /r/atheism from the default subreddits. Visitors should not have someone's beliefs or lack of beliefs shoved down their throat.

I should clarify a little. I am not arguing that r/atheism needs to be removed or that r/christianity or any other religious subreddit should be made default. I have nothing against atheism or any other beliefs or lack thereof. I just think r/atheism has become more about bashing religious people more than actually about discussing atheism. Religious beliefs, whether or not you agree with them, are extremely important to people who have faith. A subreddit to shows complete disrespect towards a group of people should not be default. They should not in any way be censored, but they should not be what is presented to people who first visit reddit. If r/atheism started being more about atheism discussions and less about bashing the beliefs of others then it should stay, but as it is now I do not think it is an appropriate default subreddit.
