Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion

RE: Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion
I guess I'm on ignore. That's OK, I take it as a complement when my points go unanswered.

No, really, it is just pure contempt, devoid of pity or sympathy.

Some atheists make bad arguments. I'm sure everyone here would agree to that statement,

Again, so what? I'll pick apart bad atheist's arguments as much as I would bad theist's arguments.

If you were doing your job faithfully, padawan, this place wouldn't be the garden of logical horrors, the septic tank of thought that it is right now. 

Where are the substantive critiques of theistic claims? Why are so many atheists foaming at the mouth instead of using reason and following the evidence?

Why does this place make atheism look like a complete shitstain as opposed to something that's intellectually, ethically and socially respectable?

Forget about the plethora of comments directed at me that fail, completely, to engage with the point of what I'm saying but rather descend into slanging matches (which I inevitably win anyhow). Just look at the comments in this discussion so far.

Yours comes closest to addressing the point in the article, and yet it is clear you haven't even read the whole thing.

Sounds like something someone with teen angst would say

Just who are the all you're referring to? The Voices?

So, you're getting more and more desperate, frustrated and angry, resorting to more and more directly offensive trolling posts? That's great. It shows you have no actual arguments on your side.

"Intellectual Bankruptcy"... lol - that's rich.

Now - since that's the kind of discussion you seem to desire - go get f***ed by your father, like the bible says, you sanctimonious sack of sh*t.

The forum looks that way to you. It doesn't look that way to me. I can't help what you think about it, can I?

No, I didn't read the whole article. I gave it a chance, but it was talking nonsense and I'm only prepared to read so much nonsense before I stop wasting my time.

You seem to have some obsession with thinking atheists have to justify themselves to you.

Kaiser: Thanks very much my friend Smile
