If you were ever a theist...

No, the pantheistic god is nothing but a failed synonym of the word universe. Why would you use an argument that is faulty to begin with? Don't answer that, it's rhetorical.

To fuck with theists. Did you read a word a said, you dumbass?

I'm sorry, I thought you said you flip back and forth between atheism and "secular" pantheism.

Would you explain to me what secular pantheism is and how it differs from a rational atheist's worldview?

Also, could you please stop editing your replies like that? Consider drafting a message before posting it, but editing it once you've posted it is best left for grammar and spelling mistakes.

What did you mean when you said I was arguing by fiat, though? I'm not familiar with that expression. Could you please explain it to me?

Either a). atheists who use the word God and related terms to mean the sum of reality(the universe or anything beyond that like the multiverse or something along those lines) or b.) people that believe supreme being is all of reality is the correct theological view and are not members of religions.

No. Internet forum comments don't demand that much work. But I'll stop posting when I'm tired and out of it if that helps.

Basically it's like when someone just declares the other side wrong, William Craig does this a lot. But I think was being too harsh since I just woke up.

What's a cafeteria atheist? There are no atheist doctrines to pick and mix.

What part of it was a f joke you didn't get? The part that rings a little truth you'll have to get on your own.

What's the deal with airline food? God, you're bad at jokes.

You're responding in such a way as to be difficult to successfully change your mind if you're wrong about something. That's not something I'll remedy by pointing out the errors in your thinking. You're the type of guy who is far more convinced by style than content. It carries more weight with you. It's also a brilliant way to attract appreciation from idiots, but I know you already know that. I'll just leave you to it and hope you grow up, as I did.

For what it's worth, you're not the only one who has this problem. Judi, Cato, Minim, Jorgand, Boru, and a bunch of others do as well. So it's not really about smarts, clearly, it's more about being a real asshole and a close-minded douche and not being able to see it.

I agree, when you don't have an answer for something, the rational answer is I don't know. Turning to your imagination to come up with answers is in no way a pathway to truth.

Maybe it's not one's imagination. 

Well if your turning the realm of the supernatural as the answer for things you can't explain, then yes it is imagination. Since we have no evidence of the supernatural whether it exists, it attributes, and how it interacts with the natural are all left up to imagination.

Maybe you are but a figment too of my imagination? Hmm..... I don't know. 

Not only am I not a figment of your imagination, I am "your" imagination. I even plant your dreams. And shit's about to get weird.

Sleep well. 

I had amazing dreams last night, were you responsible for that?

I was never a theist but if I ever was I think my life would have been even more confusing.
