Question for Atheists

[tonyc4444]

And yeah, they have been nitpicking the shit out of it

I should expect that if I were you, if you intend your work to be published. For my part, I was trying to draw attention to a common theist preconception of what atheism isn't.

and are apparently upset that I'm only here to do research for the book I mentioned in the OP. 

Ah, that would be because of our General Forum Rule 1 - "This is a discussion forum." If you're not here for discussion, you're going to get short shrift. Add that to pimping your book - twice - in violation of our spam rules and after being asked to stop, and you're on quite thin ice. I advise that you tread softly, lest it cracks underfoot.

Uh, I was looking for a discussion. That was the whole point to the question. I wasn't pimping my book, I was responding to the question about my intentions. And I'll tell you the same thing I told the other moron. I'm not coming back in here anyway after 6pm est so ban me all you want.

This is the truth. I came in here for a polite discussion with a group of Atheists because I wanted their perspective on one of the major themes in my book. I was polite with everyone who was polite with me. Through out the entire experience all you people have done is re-enforced what Christians say about you. I was polite and courteous right up until the point when I finally lost my patience, and that specifically started with you. Who gives a good flying fuck if the word is capitalized or not. And even if you were trying to get me to understand some other notion regarding how Theists view Atheists what in the flying sam hell does that have to do with the OP? This is the first forum I've ever been in where there isn't a rule about sticking to the topic, or maybe there is and the moderators just don't follow it. I was also up front with why I was here at the very beginning, but I'm guessing some of you didn't bother to read what I actually wrote. Instead you stopped at my religion type up there at the top and decided I was the enemy right off the bat. THAT's what happened. THAT'S what you did. Go back and read through the thread. I did nothing here but try and have a discussion, that's all I tried to do, anyone with any brain at all can see that. I won't wait till 6pm, I'll go ahead and bounce now because I really have all I need for my book. The character of the typical Atheist is very clear. My character is going to be an arrogant, condescening asshole who lives in a basement and spends his day spewing vitriol to anyone who opposes his belief system.

To those of you who were kind to me today, I thank you. I took notes and will take what you said into consideration. To the rest of you. Fuck off.
