Wasn't really saying they were using it incorrectly so much as that I just don't like the way they used it. It paints atheists as monsters that are morally bankrupt, which is not true at all.
It's just an expression though. No one thinks much about it. I'm an atheist, and still I say "thank god" or "Oh my god". Those are just expressions that were adapted to the spoken language, the deeper meaning is no longer important.
That's true but those phrases don't imply an entire group of people are basicaly savages. I don't even like pc but I think that phrase shouldn't be used because it slanders an entire minority.
I'm not like, calling for a movement against it. It just dislike it. And at least here in the US, atheists are one of the most distrusted minorities according to polls. That's why I don't like it, because it demonizes them and a lot of people are pretty ignorant about them
