No rational case for God = increasingly desperate attacks on atheists

RE: No rational case for God = increasingly desperate attacks on atheists
(July 10, 2014 at 4:28 pm)Faith No More Wrote: The more I think about it, the more I've started to feel that maybe I only label myself an agnostic atheist in some sort of attempt to maintain a false notion of intellectual integrity. I'm starting to think that things like the incredible weakness of the arguments for god, the illegitimacy of all supernatural claims and the tendency for human beings to make up answers when they can't figure it out themselves is enough to conclude that god does not exist.

Mind you, I'm not completely convinced of this. It does, however, seem more and more convincing, and to compare such a conclusion to that of religious faith, which involves leaping to wild conclusions on terrible evidence, is just disingenuous.

I've already said I don't promise to be an agnostic atheist my whole life, I could as well switch to gnosticism, it happens and there are good arguments. But for now agnosticism fits me better.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
