Yup. Just like when I hear the word ‘Austria’ my first reaction is ‘AUSTRIANS!’, because the majority of the people in Austria are - brace yourself - Austrians.
Cool, huh?

The weird thing is that you think of ethnicity at all when you think of poor people.

Like your atheism for Zeus.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Then you understand neither atheism, nor the Dunning-Kruger effect. Or this is just another of your lame attempts at trolling of course. Either way it is yet another sweeping piece of bigotry.
I'll play along though, demonstrate something approaching objective evidence that any deity exists, or that a deity is even possible?

Right, because I don't assume "slum" carries a racial component to it.
No assumption is needed, there is plenty of objective evidence that shows the racial demographics among those living in poverty in the US, I posted two citations in this thread.
Quote:I also wouldn't "argue" against you if you made the claim, "TWM believes that water is made of candy!" because that's fucking dumb and unrelated to anything I think or even care about.
False equivalence fallacy.
Quote:What race do you believe comes from the slum?
I already answered this, and you ignored it? Here it is again then:
"Both poverty and income strongly correlate with race in the United States. Among all racial groups, Black Americans are second most likely to experience poverty, with 21% living below the poverty threshold, following Native Americans at 25%. Black Americans in particular have only ten cents for every dollar in wealth that white families have."
CITATION
"According to 2018 US Census Data, the highest poverty rate by race is found among Native Americans (25.4%), with Blacks (20.8%) having the second highest poverty rate, and Hispanics (of any race) having the third highest poverty rate (17.6%)."

You didn't mention poor people - you mentioned slums, which have a high percentage of minorities. This isn't a weird opinion or a racist one. It is a brute fact and not subject to sensible debate.
Again, I'm sorry about your traumatic toilet training.

Or
Quote:Theism is truly peak rationality and intelligence unlike theism which is the epitome of the Dunning-Kruger effect.
Fixed that for you

"Lectured" has an implication that you learn; I gave up on that on day one.
