Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?

You apparently don't know much about fallacies, nor sarcasm. Argumentum ex culo is a sardonic way of telling you you're pulling your argument out of your ass. It's not actually a logical fallacy as much as it is simply an unsupported assertion.

When speaking of the essence or nature (being)... think of this a "what" statement.  It is the substance of what makes God... God.

This is the ex culo part, because Christianity posits a personal god. He is not a title, he is a being. You're trying to have it both ways when you argue this.

So you worship a schizophrenic, then. Got it.

Yes, I'm aware of that unsubstantiated claim, too. Until I see a basis for accepting it, it too goes into the scrapheap. It's all very convenient to posit a truism that cannot be verified at all -- convenient, but not convincing.
