We are not mad at god. WE DON'T BELIEVE IN YOUR GOD.  I can't say it with enough emphasis. None of us is mad at a god when there is no evidence that such a being exist or if he does, as some do believe, has not shown the slightest interest in gracing our planet in any empirical way, shape, form or fashion.

So stop chastising us as if we were naughty children who won't accept parental authority. You have proven in a zillion posts that your standard for accepting something as truth is dismally low and whenever challenged to examine your claims, you instead resort to obfuscation and outright disingenuousness. So please...you make me tired.

It might be more accurate to say, "Not everyone here is mad at God."

Some are. Big time. [Image: sad_yes.gif]

Just take off your atheist-colored glasses and read the posts without bias. You'll see.

You could offer us some posts to look at and explain how they are biased, rather than just making a broad statement and then refuse to supply any evidence.

I don't think this will help. There are some theists (probably a small minority) who's brains are so wired that way, they can't grasp the concept of atheism. They genuinely think we're acting in response to a bad childhood, in denial of judgement or some such thing. Trying to enlighten them is like trying to enlighten a young-Earth creationist - futile and a waste of time.

Any theist worth talking to understands we don't believe in God. They may not grasp our reasoning but they get that we don't believe.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Yeah, it's kind of like when people think I'm an atheist because I'm angry at god because of my disability.  It's actually the opposite - I used to buy into the tripe that others told me.  That my health issues in this life were preparing me for something greater, and all that jazz.  I took comfort in it.  It helped me cope.  I realized I was an atheist because of a dozen and more things not related to my disability in any way that just never added up.

It's just that Randy is mad at Zeus, and believes everyone else should be too.  If only Randy would overcome his anger and properly worship Zeus, all would be good.

... Because making a bald assertion and then refusing to provide evidence for it makes you look like a genius? Huh

So, basically, you're better qualified to decide what's in the minds of people you've never met than they are, and if anyone disagrees with you on that entirely ridiculous assertion it's because of bias you also couldn't possibly be able to ascertain? Dodgy

Thank you, Randy. Your penchant for presumption is a constant source of entertainment.

I quoted you two as representative, but clearly, I've ignited a firestorm.

WHOA, PEOPLE. DID I SAY THAT ALL ATHEISTS ARE MAD AT GOD?  [Image: no.gif]

I didn't even say this of ATHEISTS per se. I wrote (read carefully):

Quote:"Not everyone here is mad at God."

Some are.

Some people here do appear to be very angry at God. Perhaps they are not really atheists because after all:

"No true atheist would be angry at God, because we don't believe God even exists."

(Careful...you don't want to "protest too much". Just kidding.)

How would "proving it" by offering posts to evaluate not be the same as "naming names" which I said I would not do?

Let me ask this of you instead: In the course of your travels IRL or on the web, have you never met anyone who was angry at God - and made all sorts of atheist arguments against Him?
