Militant atheists condemn respect for people of faith. Militant atheists want to subordinate religion.You mean like how militant atheists harass Christians in the Religion forum.There is not enough information in the linked article to determine whether it means just praying for a person, who does not have to know that they are the subject of a prayer, or if it just bans as harassment some kind of theatrical production conducted when the person is present and has no idea of what is to come, which would be harassment. I suspect that this called-for ban is of the latter sort.
Explain who "militant atheists" are. I don't think that atheists are likely to get involved in any squabble between Christian sects or Christians v. adherents of other religions. Atheists, agnostics, and free thinkers just want to be left alone. If a Christian wants to squabble with another Christian, or members of non-Christian faiths want to squabble with each other, there always is a third set of people who just want to say: "a pox on both your houses; leave us alone or I will smack your two heads together."
Whoa! Which "people of faith"? Who are "militant atheists"? What is this "religion" that you think is being subordinated? I will address only Christians, with no disrespect meant toward other faiths and their adherents. I call your attention to Christian churches that welcome and affirm their LGBTQ faithful, and that also welcome and affirm people of the female sex. LGBTQs and women of the Christian faith are affirming the religion based on the life of Jesus.
