you know, with people like us around, your less valid claims are just that ... less valid.

But all that doesn't matter. I am fairly certain you are paid to post. your post here is just utter nonsense.
He's not being paid to post... he has a master plan to save humanity/ U.S.A. He's stated his homeland is pretty much in check, and so he has the time branch out.

He doesn't understand that his homeland is more akin to a small shop attached to a larger anchor store in a shopping center. The small shop doesn't survive unless the anchor thrives.

(And, no I don't believe it)

Maybe it is as simple as he is on a crusade to save with his statement of belief about god ... at all cost.

Here's an interesting thing for those who don't believe in an Interventionist God. I have been watching a youtube video called "An Oral History of the Jesus Movement" that I started last night. It's a three hour discussion about the early 70's Calvary Chapel/ Jesus-Freak hippie movement. I was getting ready to pause it halfway in and search for some Monkees videos, when one of the guys suddenly mentions Mickey Dolenz being at the church once. Thirty minutes later I'm still playing the same video. How can anyone explain that?

No. They only hate atheists that try to make a difference. They like things as they are. It's called 'being Conservative'. And they hate Liberals.

Yep. Can't count on Europe anymore, and the Commonwealth doesn't give a crap about us. US will have to save us a third time.

If you head wasn't glued in a Religion -oriented way, you'd see the very obvious fact that I am posting in the US. That's the place that needs to change. the UK - and Europe has already changed. The US Is the anchor -store - we UK atheists know that.

Grotesque. Ozzy at least has Some idea - though back to front. The US 'nones' movement itself sees what is needed to 'save you'. I'm just here helping. It is just toxic hate by those who support religion (even if they only enable it it by opposing the 'nones' tendency). I don't doubt that you inept attempt to equate the 'statements of belief' (which you foist on me) with some evangelical hate -figure will leave the reasonable too embarrassed for you to laugh.

Hate is a strong word. Maybe people do "hate" something about aggressive atheists.... the SAME way that they hate aggressiveness in anything, such as an overly aggressive religious evangelist.

But in my opinion no one hates anyone who just lives and believes without trying to convert others. I don't see fundamentalists even having that attitudes towards atheists. There seems to be a mutual respect between the vast majority of atheists and religious fundamentalists.

I don't see anyone here hating liberals unless it is an extremist type.

I'll tell you what doesn't matter - anything you post. The only reason I even respond is just to underline what makes you a laughing stock anyway. The absurd stawmen (should that be strawmans ?) - a hatred of atheism is not the same as a hatred of 'New' atheism, which is atheism that speaks out tries to make a change. The ludicrous attempt to make us the villains on the grounds that you won't declare a 'statement of belief'. What the hell do you think atheism is, anyway?

I hardly need hold up the sign saying "Laugh" at your accusation that I am being paid to post. I only wish! I hardly need address you observations on Bosses and fatcat capitalism. Beleive me - after the double financial collapse (thanks, America ) that put me on the breadline for 5 years, you don't need to rant to me about that.

In short you know and understand nothing and clearly don't want to. You would rather throw together a meaningless wordsalad that has on;y one point - to bash atheists that will not leave religion alone to tell everyone how to live.

The Monkees???You're obviously easily amused as well as influenced if Dolenz going to a church was that interesting to you.
