View submission: What the complainers misunderstood about the importance of the "faces of atheism" trend

View parent comment

Some of them are ex-religious people in search of a new community after giving up their old one. A number posted thank-yous for seeing the faces. Even if most subscribers have been here for awhile, for the new ones who don't have anybody IRL, this has apparently been helpful.

And, honestly, it was a lot more interesting to me than the endless Dawkins/Gervais quotes, FB screen shots and meme pics (don't get me wrong, I like AdviceAnimals and I love Dawkins, but it's not like the majority of the content on r/atheism is world-shakingly profound at the best of times)

There's nothing here!
