What crazy theories of mine? All I've done is dismiss/rule out what you believe to be true.

Simple as that.

Mate, you didn't even start.
He has dismissed your theories for the same reason I have dismissed any hypothesis that there is a teapot orbiting the planet Saturn. There is is no evidence to even assume it's true.

How does this list differ from "the list of those who disagree with Frodo's assertions"?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Take heart Tea: Frodo, unlike the character claimed as his god, is incapable of tormenting those who end up on his stupid list. So, in the overall order of stupid lists, you probably wont even notice that you've made the cut for his.

Once again entirely subjective and therefore, once again entirely irrelevant.

A theist with a "stupid list"?

I've seriously fucking seen it all now.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
