And why are they all so angry?
Check out this guy… Why is he so emotional? Where is all this anger and hate coming from???
Is his anger justified? Why? Is this guys argument even logical?

This is an atheist website and here you are whining about atheists being angry on a site created for them, try posting on a Christian forum complaining about the behaviour of Christians and see what happens then. You can take your sense of religious privilege and stick it where the sun doesn't shine, angry enough for you?
It's an atheist website, but it's also public. Did you expect only people would show up that believe everything you say? If you only want to talk to other atheists who agree with you, then you can always make it a private site for atheists.

Nice try dude but epic faiI. I didn't expect only those who share my beliefs would show up, I welcome discourse and diversity of opinion but I dislike whiney douches complaining about atheists daring to be pissed off on an atheist forum, like I said try bitching about christians on a Christian forum and I guarantee you getting banned in short order, you guys get a lot more leaway on atheist sites than we ever get on yours.

I see, then I apologize for you being victimized. Maybe let them know if you are getting your feelings hurt or whatever objection you have. This kind of banter is pretty normal on sites like this though. Best thing is to just let it roll off your back.

You're right. I'm pretty used to this sort of environment so my feelings aren't hurt at all I'm just responding maybe a bit too combativly though.

I do it too. Sometimes I get caught up in the heat of a discussion and overstep myself. It's too easy to react when there are things we all feel strongly about.

Yup, it's a bad habit of mine at times, thankfully I don't do it too often now, I'm learning to moderate myself, mostly it's just certain things really annoy me and unfortunately Christians wanting their own sites to be protected bubbles and yet expecting and for the most part getting total freedom to say some really quite douchey things on atheist sites while seemingly not appreciating or recognising their hypocrisy is one of them so I like to call them on it, probably I shouldn't as it tends to get out of control really quickly.

I can be the same way. Just as people, there are millions of things we can all agree on, yet sometimes our emotions get tied into the one or two things we see differently.
