The one they used to follow before being / converted to atheism or some other religion they used to detest when they followed a particular religion?
Do they concentrate more on the religion which they think has some potential to challenge their views. A connected question, do atheists study religion deeply before abandoning it?

scientology 
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
I dont think so. Most people in the Western world are atheist nowadays, they have never been to Churches so no chance of studying any religion deeply.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
why?
so one can deny a religion without having proper knowledge about the religion?
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
why not? if one researches on the religions, there are chances he will adopt one as a result.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
question arises what makes people detest religions? lack of information or the way a particular aspect of religion they experience.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
desire of having liberty to do whatever one wants. do you think if some atheist got enligtenment of existence of God , he will become 24 hrs worshiper? NO.
But the way they ask such questions is as if they want to become a saint and only need a proof first.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Is asking question to clarify misconception a bad idea? May be they don’t easily get convinced.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Believe me, they dont come here to be convinced. Actually no one on these forums come to be convinced. we agree to those only whom we already kind of agreed with, its a myth.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Obvious answer is Christianity.
Athiesim is like opposite of Christianity.
they stay away from islam ( secretly those liberal atheists fasists think islamists are not mature enough for a good dialogue)
and they dont understand and care about hinduism/buddhism
i doubt they even heard about parsis/jains/bahai etc so wont care.
PS. There is nothing called getting converted to atheist. It is free of bondage and limits. Even religious people can be athiests. I have seen several working priests or head of religious organizations who are openly athiests.
My personal belief is that every one has element of atheisim in them, and more than half of the people are actually athiests but they are too scared to tell.

They believe religions the responsible for a big proportion of wars.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Faith challenges rationality. This is what keeps most people away from religion.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
you mean faiths lack rationality or atheists believe so?
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
were there no wars without involvement of religion. were first and second world wars instigated by any religion?

Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Interesting points.
How can a religious person can be atheist unless he develops some doubts about the religion?
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Christianity…and rightly so. Too many blunt mistakes in bible.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
There have been wars which were not based on religions, but most have been like crusades, sectarian killings (like Shia/Sunni and Catholic and Orthodox), Palestine/Israel…
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
Not a SINGLE human being is without fear of God, be it atheist, agnostic or religious. No exception.
Re: Which religion atheists destest most?
and this argument is of smallest proportion of arguments atheists give against religion.
