Perhaps I am completely naive as this is my first atheist forum, but I don't really understand the outward name calling. Is it customary on this site to make wild assertions of a persons character or purpose? Should I, in return, be as offensive to sound or appear to have more conviction? Folks, unless you haven't learned yet, just because your louder, angrier, aggressive, or treating, doesn't make you right. I've sat through too many conferences, meetings, or events to be swayed by other's agendas. No matter how passionate!
What is so promising or what is the compelling benefit a person would gain from being an atheist? Why am I inferior and you are superior?
You brazenly state that we are amoral arseholes for not believing in your invisible sky fairy and then you accuse us of name calling.
I see I'm going to have to invest in a mil spec irony meter.
There are no benefits to being an atheist, apart from the money saved by not giving it to the thieving cunts in frocks that infest the churches like maggots.
It is simply the inescapeable conclusion you arrive at when you think about the universe without the blinkers of religion installed.
If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.
