It is not strange that your straw man and deflection does not address the point. You had to twist the argument so much, one must ask why you fear atheists for simply not believing dubious claims. is it because you know all your claims ARE dubious?

A good deal of strange here, but among what is very strange is this argument that atheism is a religion while at the same time it's been vehemently argued by so many religious people that atheism should not be part of the discussion in the R&S forum. Some real strange head-scratcher arguments one encounters here. That's for sure.

Does everything go over your head? I did not realize that anti semetic statements were only political and had nothing to do with religions?

By the way I live in a country that has a Queen. She does not passedicts not is that resulted to anything I said.

Since Lauren Bobert is a theist and said yesterday that separation of church and state is a bad thing, religion should direct the state, and we have all sorts of onerous laws and regulation only because the church obeys them, I therefore conclude that all theists want a theocracy and advocate lawlessness when it suits them.

I further conclude that since Bobert used to be a sex worker and has had two abortions that we know of, all theists are okay with sexual immorality and abortion, despite being publicly apposed to it. And with lying.

(While the conclusions are untrue of all theists, this line of reasoning is actually less untrue than the ridiculous assertions being promulgated by some here against atheists).

I can't comprehend how you concluded that atheists were talking like fundamental Christians or that they are not far from the Bible, in your response to mordant's post, since all he did was reference what the lady said (about eliminating the separation of church and state) and he didn't even mention the Bible in his post.

Well I am expanding your comprehension skills with my conclusions and opinions, just as Mordent was doing with his.

No you aren't. My comprehension skills are just fine. Your post misrepresented what mordant had posted in at least twp ways.
