Several years ago I was waiting in town for the last bus to take my beloved fiancée Sam home (this was before we'd moved in together). It was a cold evening and the bus was, predictably, late. As well as the two of us there was about half a dozen large West Indian ladies, of the type normally to be found at gospel revivalist groups. Anyway, after what seemed like hours, the lights of the bus appeared over the brow of the hill. "Hallelujah!" murmured Sam under her breath, triggering a Pavlovian reaction from one of our queuemates: "Praise the Lord!"

Sam and I were fighting to keep from laughing the whole journey.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

When fundamentalists give birth and then indoctrinate their children who may be likely to also become theist and thus repeat the cycle over and over.

So, exist, basically.

I hate it when they refuse to use birth control because if they get pregnant it must be god's will. Then they end up pimping out 10 - 20 kids.

Cool..here is a short list

Annoying things atheists do

1. Say Christians are terrible people, treats them like subhumans: "Do as I say, not as I do"

2. Says they know more about the bible than Christians, doesn't understand the difference between the Old and New Covenant: Hint, Christians aren't jews under the Mosaic law

3. Doesn't believe in authentic conversion, believes everyone who says they are Christian is Christian: There are true scotsmen. They live in scotland and wear kilts.

4. Claim they lack a belief in God, but actually don't believe in God: Yeah, I'm on to you

5. Won't accept any evidence except Jesus shaking their hand, when told how to know Jesus personally, refuses to do it: Only a lightning bolt will suffice

6. Denies absolutes, absolutely believes that: sigh

7. Religious belief in science for all the answers, says faith is for stupid people: Use science to prove these and get back to me: Existential truth, Mathematical Truth, Aesthetic Judgements, Metaphysical Truths, Moral Truth, Logical Truth, Historical Truth, Experiential Truth, and itself.

8. Says God didn't create the Universe, has no idea how it happened: Thanks for your informed opinion

9. Believes nothing exploded and that magically created order and complexity, and from this rocks became alive and turned into soup which turned into monkeys and then into you, thinks Creationism is ridiculous: Hah!

10. Claims Christianity is a waste of time, spends all of their time talking about God, Christianity and Christians: I think there is something more to this..

11. Brings up religious wars, won't acknowledge mass murdering atheistic regimes: your death toll is way higher

12. claims sin has nothing to do with unbelief, can't and wont stop sinning: who do you think you're kidding?

13. claims they've heard it all before, never once listened: in one ear and out the other

14. doesn't like it when Christians proselytize and try to convert them, proselytizes to Christians and tries to convert them: how long until you have special underwear?

15. hates it when Christians influence public policy, supports atheist organizations that influence public policy: Starting to see a trend here..

16. doesn't think children should be raised with religion, indoctrinates their own children: pot, meet kettle.

I'll include one for deists too:

1. praises impersonal God, hates personal God, looking at same Universe: those are some schizophrenic standards

Erm, when I see theists complain about 'atheist persecution', well, I just have to laugh out loud:

Many atheists are, in fact, highly versed in the nuances of the Bible, particularly those atheists who were formerly Judeo-Christian. But let me ask you this. You aoften see televangelists reading from the old testament, and quite often misinterpreting it (the book of the Jewish people). As Lewis Black has pointed out, you don't see any Jews on television reading from the New Testament, do you???

My first cut in expendature would be to this guy. Oh wait, that wouldn't be possible since I've never given him any of my money!

Pat Robertson is a putz, a schister, and would schtoop his own mother if she was still alive. Maybe he did.

I love using yiddish curse words. Smile
