There are "fundy-think types" in every group. Literally all of them. No one has disputed that, yet you bring it up on just about every thread, and compare fundamentalists to "millimental" atheists, and stuff like that. My point, is your obsession with doing so seems unhealthy. Why are you so obsessed with constantly comparing atheists to fundies, even when it has no bearing on the thread itself? Especially since you claim you are an atheist, which I still don't buy since nothing you say sounds like you are an atheist.
No you are wrong. I strictly talk to militant atheist. all of my post speak directly to a certain sub group of atheist. denying or changing that statement is willfully dishonest on your part.

My claim is fundy theist = millitant atheist. they seem to be the same personality disorder.

I am not comparing "all atheist" to Fundy think types. I am comparing fundy think type theist to fundy think type atheist. why would you defend a fundy think atheist?

you are ok follow people that follow a central dogma of:
"some of us feel religion is so dangerous we will deny everything that theist can use that make atheism harder to sell"?

me, I don't care how the universe works. it works the way it works. and atheist countries are a fail. theist countries are a fail.

why would you force me to accept one as more valid when neither is the most valid position?

Which is my point. You do this constantly. Obsessively. Like you have OCD, only it makes you post the same nonsense over and over again.

Who does that? Not me. I speak against the ills of religion/religiosity, but I also recognize that it isn't ALL bad, and not all religious people are the same. So I guess I would say, no, I am not okay to follow those people, whoever they may be.

Funny, you post a lot about it for someone who doesn't care.... Countries are a fail because of things like greed and corruption. Religious beliefs or not, they all fall due to those types of things, not their beliefs.

Who is forcing you to do anything? The only "valid" position to have, based off of actual evidence, is "We don't know". Everything else is simply guesswork.

Yet no data can be "manipulated" like a thinking-being can, and the data from that 1970s CIA-backed scientist was neither fraudulent nor falsified.

"misleading" would be the worst that the CIA managed to have the scientist do/write,

the easily CIA-manipulated corporate sensationalist media probably took it from there.

Yes, of course, ANY chemical at high enough amounts will cause "disrupted brain waves". LOL

Alcohol probably being the worst drug in any harm department.

Why are atheists not OCD for posting their SAME nonsense over and over again?

Why are Christians not OCD for posting their SAME nonsense over and over again?

If Christians keep presenting the same claims, atheists will have to keep giving the same responses. That's how it is. We can't change the facts simply because you have heard the facts before.

exactly right. we need to face down fundy think types when they present less valid claims. every time they say them we need to address them.

while fundy atheist keep making the same statements we (regular atheist) need to keep repeatedly calling it out as nonsense sometimes.

rejecting things like we are in a system of life because you fundy think types think its bad for atheism and/or a god thing needs to be consistently put down as nothing more than a conclusion based on their statement of belief about god and religion. and the claim we are not, doesn't match observation.

The fundy think types that follow the dogma of "we feel religion is so dangerous we need to deny anything the theist can use to make atheism harder to sell." are the problem.

trans ... you wanna respond ... you were the one that told me this. I know you won't, because you know its a stupid starting point.

It isn't that it is the same content, Mystic. I have explained this before. It is because it is the same few sentences and words, over and over again. That's why I told Arach he should either get over his obsession with "fundy atheists", or get some new material.

I have also told other posters they are boring with their repetition, and should get new material.
