So many people seem to think we have one but I don't remember ever coming up with any agenda. So could someone please tell me what this atheist agenda is and how we are apparently forcing it on people?

Other than gay sex orgies and babby bbqs, I can't think of anything.
Well, we do plant the occasional "dinosaur" skeleton, but that's just for kicks, really.

Personally Atheist has no agenda. They have a belief that they simply don't believe in God. People who believe in God don't see how an atheist exist without believing in a supreme being that put them here. I understand how atheist don't believe because they either accept what they have been raised on or they can't see it or hear it or feel it, then it don't exist. This means that God hasn't revealed himself to those particular atheist, therefore they are not chosen. Now as far as agenda. The atheist belief is used by the devil's agenda. The atheist could be quit oblivious to the devil's agenda. Christians sees the agenda but the atheist may have no clue.

Well duh, we don't know cause we aren't the ones allowed to make it up. The religionists are.
See, look at Brown. Per him they want us to support communism and kill people in China. Oh and fail.
?
Then there is Son of God so we have to support the agenda of .....hmmmm.. ..yet another fantasy creature. This might take a while.
Also I've seen praying to satan. And believing in the devil and corrupting people. It wouldn't take much to find more, but holy crap that is already a busy Thursday afternoon!
I'm not much interested in any of those, so it's open if anyone else wants them.
I'd rather go leave water for the robin who made a nest by my front door. That seems more useful.

The only 'agenda' is to get religion out of public policy. I don't care what and how you worship, it has no effect on me, so there's no cause for concern. But when religion, as supported and understood by followers of a specific one, infiltrate into public policy we have a problem. I, nor would followers of other faiths, do not want one faith to set public policy.
Imagine how christians would feel is Islam had a dominate influence over our laws. Then shift in different faiths and atheism into that previous sentence. This is why in the USofA there is freedom of and from religion.

Next step: New Agenda

Well...first we are going to take out all the major religions by using their stereotypes against them (aka toss a penny between two jews and watch them fight to the death, same with catholic priests and a small boy, restart the spanish inquisition, kill all the hindu holy cows, tear up the eight fold path, and whatever else.) Then we are going to screw up all their children by teaching them (GASP) science! Therefore ruining the entire future of all other generations and undermining the teachings of their 6,000 year old past. Then we will burn down all their churches and allow gays to get married and women to have a choice of what to do with their bodies and let couples have sex with condoms and use birth control and NOT procreate. What else can we do to completely ruin the future of humanity???? Oh yea, stem cell research to discover cures for hundreds of diseases! Oh jeeze.
Yea...we totally have an agenda! We aren't just practicing our freedom to believe or not believe in whatever we want. Didn't you get the memo?

I never received any agenda. I suppose if there is an agenda, then it's been prepared by anyone who asks a question. And that's anyone: religionists, atheists or agnostics; we're all in it together.

My main agenda, given to me by the Prince of Darkness Satan, is to make fossils appear to be millions of years old using radiometric dating. I also make light from stars billions of light years away reach earth, even though it's only 6000 years old. We have to be more discrete about our agenda, though. Let's not let the world in on our diabolical plans.

We are naturally born Atheists, everybody were born Atheists.
When every one surronds you is a Christian, you automatically becomes a Christian as well to conform into the same group.
For someone like me who never had Religious influence when I was young, I had a more free and open mind when i got older and i was able to see beyond the misconceptions and false hope.

Other than that, I plan to go out dancing tonight and hopefully flirt with some boys... That's definitely on the agenda.

the bigots will claim it's babby eating, gay sex and removing all religion from the christian countries like the US and the UK
edit: Son Of God has produced the normal silly answer where it's only about god or satan - atheism means no belief in either

I don't claim you have an agenda. In fact, I maintain that few religious or philosophical movements have had as little impact on the world as atheism. Think about it: You have no literature to compare with the impact the Bible has made, you've produced few or no hospitals, missions and charitable groups. Hardly anybody agrees with your loony ideas (about 6 to 8 percent of Americans according to the latest research). Your one big achievement was in producing communism, and aside from getting a lot of people killed (such as at Tiannenmen Square), we know how well it has fared. You've been an utter failure, to be honest, so clearly if you do have an agenda, it's an ill-conceived one.

The "atheist agenda" is pretty much the same as the "theists agenda", to convince the rest of the world to beleive as they do.
It's a misconception each side has about the other, fueled by the fact that a very vocal minority of both groups actually ARe trying for that end.
