Are atheists the reason why Muslims hate the US?
They seem to support creating and exporting pornography, and they're also behind "Draw Mohammed Day". Are atheists responsible for the violence they cause?

Evidence, Professor. You are claiming atheists are responsible for those things, but they are in fact not. Christians make up 75% of the US, atheists make up 3%. Most atheists hold higher degrees. And you want to convince me that the measly 3%, most of whom are college educated, are making the entire 4 billion dollar porn industry? Not likely, pumpkin.
We are also not behind the "Draw Mohammed" crap. Christians, particularly conservative Christians, are the ones railing against Muslims.

Sort of but not really. Muslims do have very high morals and hate the wrongdoings of people in the west, but that's not the point.
If you've read the Koran, you'll notice that Jews and Christians are supposed to be the enemies of Muslims. Though the US preach freedom of belief and all that jazz, it was essentially built up as a Christian country. That's why some Muslims don't like the US.

Part of it. Their answer to Europe being more sexually liberal, secularist, etc, is to move there in increasing amounts to out populate the non religious. So yes, secularists and atheists in Europe made europe become the continent of mamby pamby land and began legalizing all kinds of things against their religion and it is obvious they are pissed. I'm agnostic, but you can plot the downfall of modern America by the decreasing amount of fiscal christians living here who made the U.S a great nation that people were proud of living in.

Doubtful.
I can't remember who it was, but some other religion was burning Qu'rans...
It's a two way hate cycle. Christianity >< Islam.

Who again was it that was doing the whole "burn a koran day"?
A preacher in Florida, not the U.S.
Can't say the same for various Islamic nations like Saudi Arabia, where there actually is a national bible burning day.

In a nutshell, the nuts hate us because WE ARE FREE. They absolutely cannot stand that! (And they're working hard, 24/7/52, to put an end to it)

No, but all the people accusing ALL Muslims (even you) need to understand that there is only a small minority group of Muslims responsible for those terrible acts.

I think it had more to do with US troops occupying their land for the last few decades. I could be wrong, but I think that has more to do with it than pornography does.

They seem to be burning alive the Christians, not the atheists.
So, I'd say "no".

And I believe it was a born-again Christian President whom invaded Iraq. And I believe it was Christians who've been spouting the "Burn a Qu'ran" stuff.
That was also the Catholic Pope that got the Muslims all in a tizzy last year as I recall with his bigoted remarks. I believe he called the Muslims "Evil and Inhuman".

Btw...when we were buddies with the Afghan rebels helping us against the Soviet Union...then abandoned them when we finished using them...that was a Christian president, too.
Ever read any history books, HT?
