How to sound like an Online New Atheist

How to sound like an Online New Atheist
A lot of atheists I know make sense, but for some reason the online brand of new atheists seem a little strange. These are just my observations on the common cliche phrases and words used. It gets boring and they are not original. Some of them are a little bit um... hands down shit stupid. The "*" is an implication or attitude.

1. "Atheism is not a belief."
2. "There is no evidence for God's existence"
3. "Tooth fairy... Spaghetti Monster..."
4. "Evolution is PROVEN"
5. "God might exist. Atheism is equal to agnosticism."
6. "God doesn't exist."
7. "Well, then who made God."
8. "Atheism is to faith, as healthy is to disease."
9. "Science says..." (In other words, they mean atheism says)
10. "Straw man. We don't believe everything came from nothing... Quantum vacuum."
11. *Speaking for all atheists*.
12. "Religion is evil."
13. "There is a lot of suffering in the world.... therefore God does not exist."
14. "Religious people are delusional."
15. "The Bible supports rape, slavery, genocide..."
16. "Hitler is a Christian"
17. "Being atheist means that you do good without the intention of reward."
18. "Hindus worship cows." (This... is shit stupid.)
19. *I know more about religion than you.*
20. *If children pray its child abuse*
21. *You are brainwashed*
22. *You are closed minded.*
23. "You need education."
24. "Religious people don't understand logic"(80% of the world are illogical)
25. "The reason why you have computers, and fucking doctors is because of science" (when science there means evolution or atheism. Tell that to my Hindu spinal surgeon)
26. "If religion were eradicated then the whole world would be a better place"(Yup, good old Soviet Union.)
27. *Assumes everyone they talk to is a Christian*
28. "Jeebus."(idk why there's a huge anti-christianism in america)
29. "Bigot"
30. "You need to go to a mental hospital if you think your imaginary God is speaking to you."
31. "god is imaginary"
32. "You guys think there is an invisible dude in the sky" (I've only heard New atheists think this)
33. "Parents need to stop brainwashing their children into religion. That's why they think illogically."
34. "That is simply NOT true." (and no reason why)
35. "Straw Man" (and then keeps changing the definition)
36. "Buddhists are theists." (Actually, no I'm fcking not. Buddhism is a relative of Sanatanama Dharma "Be whatever you want. A great deal of us are actually atheists. I prefer to see it in more Hindu deist light though)
37. "Just because I'm not religious doesn't mean I'm not moral."(when the real argument was "new atheism does require or explain the need, origin, or use of morality.")
38. *Going off topic when its difficult and into tantrums*
39. *Throwing burden of proof away when it becomes to difficult* #Wellthenwhocreatedgod
30. "That's abiogenesis, I'm talking about evolution. " (Um, the topic was atheism??)
31. "Atheism is not religious" (Our eatern atheism is. Me not included)
32. *Hates ex-atheists like me*

There's more. My fingers are tired. I dislike western new atheists a lot when they are in online mode.

Why do you hate evolution?
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

I don't hate Evolution. I just hate assholes and assholism.

Self hatred is never a healthy approach.

For all the easily butthurt people here, don't get mad. It's to show you how to NOT be a dumb atheist. Be an original awesome atheist. The deal is use better arguments instead of copy-pasting from talk-origins and the God delusion.

Considering you burst onto our forum yelling crazily and wanting us to sympathise with your rampant homophobia, I'm not surprised you don't like what atheists say to you.

Maybe you should grow up and learn how to have sensible discourse first.

Many of those things you have stated in your strawman composite atheist are very true, and things you have no answer for which is why you resort to calling people assholes instead. It's not a rebuttal. If you are claiming all those statement are factually wrong, then you are so far off the mark it's not funny.

I still think you're a Poe.

You're right. I shouldn't hate humans. Just dogs like you. Back to your kennel boy.
