Yeah don't watch the aftershow or read any articles, just enjoy it for what it is. If there is no God, we must create one to serve us.

Necromorph milk, I think. Normal android milk doesn't kill like that -- I assume this is what that one atheist was trying to do to Ragnar last season with the eyeballs.

The more the food looks like it came from Willy Wonky the less possible the food is radioactive! That's just science

Also youd think these loving robots would have a gieger counter installed

The show may be hamfisted but I don't think it's attacking the actual beliefs on either side. IMO it's more about war objectifying people no matter what side they're on, and political groups on either side using the same methods and stuff like that.

Like, I think it is being absurd and aggressive in its insulting portrayals of both the Atheists and the Mithraists, but I don't think it's attacking "atheism" generally, or faith for that matter.

I'd need to rewatch the first two episodes this season to confirm this, but our definition of "atheism" and the show's aciomqtic definition of atheism aren't the same thing, I think. The setting isn't using the Atheist faction as a stand-in for atheism directly, so much as it's exploring this idea through Campion (and Mother?).

IIRC, some of the lore from the first season incicated that the atheists aren't people who don't maintain a religion, they're people who don't worship Sol.

But this is all from a while back.

You can still have atheists who believe in greater concepts. Isn't the definition of atheism just that you don't believe in religious deities?

They’re not defined by atheism then though are they?
