Atheism is NOT a religion, is NOT hateful, has no dogma...It is simply the non belief in any and all gods.

You on the other hand are a selective atheist in regards to the gods you do not believe in.
It's you that doesn't "get it"...and you never have. That is why you have put so many precious hours of your life into bashing and insulting Religious People (even declaring you wanted them dead) that hold an opposing belief to your own.
Courts have ruled Atheism a Religion in the U.S as respects the 1st Amendment of the Constitution.
The way Atheism is "nasty, biased, & hateful", is the same way all Religions can be. Some people co-opt certain concepts, or objections to concepts, put forth by proponents of a Ideology...and they then take a negative view (and at times, actions) toward those that do not agree.
Thus the moniker "Militant' Atheists, for those that put out a serious negative vibe toward those with a contradictory point of view.

I would say any body that stands behind the statement that we don't need any evidence to support a belief is a "religion-ist type thinker. They are basically supporting blind faith. Weather atheist or theist is not really the primary concern. well, to any non religion-ist anyway.

Those that willfully limit the evidence allowed to be brought to bear to evaluate beliefs are worse than your average born fundy think type. They are far more dangerous than your average person. They knowingly think about it and actively choose to suppress information to deceive people.

Its not based on belief, not even a little bit.

My over all statements apply to both your atheism and my atheism. Yours is only about you. We can assume that when we move out of the bubble of "fight religion", disagreeing me means you are evil.

Which means you have to get on that. Fight the image in the mirror first.

Whatever "messages" he (and many of the others) is getting...they revolve heavily around feces. "Pieces of" it...and that from male bovine.
So many of their posts mention that...along with describing others that hold different Beliefs/Views by vulgar invectives (even disgusting sexual fetishes) and insults...and little else. What's up with that?
Of course...I am being "condescending", "objectionable", "smarmy", "pompous", "arrogant", "hollow", a "ignoramus", a fool (pyrite), "stirring" the aforementioned feces, and "causing turmoil"....for noting that. Who knew?!!

We sometimes use naughty words and phrases to accurately describe your posts, but you think it is in order to lie about us in every post. It is called pay back.

The question is, do you actually have a honest, rational argument for anything? Such as the OP?

I don't fight religion, I illuminate its falsity.


YOU, OTOH, LIE through your teeth about people like me.


And, if I DID fight religion, what of it? You say that as if it is an invalid thing to do.



And besides, I'm a Vampire, I don't cast an image in a mirror!!!!.


One more thing. You claim to be educated, but you repeatedly take compound words and break them up into the individual elements. It shows a distinct lack of education and/or intellect.


Latest example is above in blue. Should be "overall", but you get it wrong again, but expect to be taken seriously. Clue: It isn't going to happen.


You are, however, correct in this. I refer to MY atheism as that is what is normal. I don't comment or try to explain or critic YOUR atheism. That is for you to do, and leave the other's atheism to them, as it is NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. They don't need or want you speaking for them. You hold no Patent, Trademark, Copyright or other form of Intellectual Property rights to atheism, so I suggest you stop posting as if you did.


Sorry to burst your bubble, but you are doing the forum a grave dis-service.

As I have said before, I don't care for your general posting style, but I do find myself sometimes agreeing with the gist of your comments.

Yes, there is nothing wrong with fighting religion, if one does it legally. As for me, religion is welcome to continue to exist as long as it knows its place.

Yes, repeatedly lying about what another poster says is simply not appropriate, especially after being corrected multiple times.

Yes, the other poster does "hold no Patent, Trademark, Copyright or other form of Intellectual Property rights to atheism". But on the other hand, once one posts something in this forum, it's fair game.
