Question:

The reasoning in the commenter’s argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it:

A) Incorrectly assumes that atheism is a hereditary trait that can be subject to natural selection and extinction.

B) Fails to acknowledge that the existence of atheists with children contradicts the claim that atheists do not reproduce.

C) Makes a hasty generalization that all atheists share the same sexual orientation and emotional state, without sufficient evidence.

D) Mistakenly treats antinatalism as a universal characteristic of atheists rather than a personal philosophical choice that varies among individuals.

E) Overlooks the possibility that atheism can continue to exist independently of the reproductive choices of current atheists, through the persuasion of others or change of belief over time.

I think they are mostly being anti-gay. Just imagine they didn’t say atheists and it makes sense.

The whole point of the commenter is stupid because if atheists do not reproduce then every atheist is a child of a theist, hence atheism will continue to exist as long as theists exist.

I'd say E undermines their point the most completely, whereas the others undermine their garbage argument. Based on this and not much else I'm inclined to believe that E would have the best odds of leading to a conclusive discussion.
