As an agnostic, I wouldn't call them "sad," but it's like Neil deGrasse Tyson said. [0] It's fine to see people interested in golf congregating and talking about it, but it'd be stranger to see a bunch of anti-golfers congregating and talking about how they don't like to play golf.

- johnfactorial 10y agoIf golf were responsible for as much tragedy as religion, congregations of anti-golfers would make a lot of sense.
- deong 10y agoNo one cares if you're a non-golfer. Atheists in quite a lot of the country (and the world, for that matter), are a notable minority group. "Persecution" implies a bit more gravity that I'd aim for in describing it, but certainly there's enough of a cultural "thing" about it that it should no longer surprise anyone that atheists might want to congregate together and talk about it.

- scotty79 10y agoIf someone influential had a plan to buy out some beloved public property and make a golf course there I'd bet there would be a lot of meetings of anti-golfers discussing of not so much how they hate golf but how much it's pointless and adversly affects their community.
