You all get were this is going.
If God wants me to now him, why does he make it so hard?
And if a theist replies with 'you just don't want to believe' or 'you just haven't considered the evidence'
Well, Fuck you. I have.
Not anger, just real frustration. Because if it's true, I want to know. You have the burden of proof so 'fess up or fuck off.
Ahhh, well bless your heart. jesus loves you just the same.

What's amazing is they expect it not to be incredibly insulting to our intelligence to hear that shit. How has arrogantly condescending to someone ever helped convince them that you're right? Not that I'm interested in changing the minds of any of the hopeless cases I see here on a regular basis.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

I get condescending about one a week. Used to get pissed, now desensitized.

Yup. The correct context is that there's a God, Amen

If you stopped searching after less than you're whole life, you didn't search long enough!

This is pretty much what I keep getting. I wasted enough of my life already, so fuck off.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

It seems amusing they don't hold this relationship to be a two-way street; we're the ones who have to put in 100% of the effort and it's up to this god's subjective opinion (which, oh, what a coinkydink, happens to conform with exactly whoever's describing him believes) whether that effort is good enough, without ever giving us a nibble of a hint as to just the right way to do it. I mean, that's an indefensible position and they'll still try to bullshit their way through it! I'm long past being able to play devil's advocate on their behalf, but does anyone want to take a critical thinking stance on how that might be defended just for shits and giggles?
