Why Should Someone Be an Atheist?

[Angrboda]

Oh, you were serious! Sorry.

Implying that I am doing something improper by offering my appraisal of some of the theists on this forum is clearly a personal attack.

No, its not. Its a criticism of something you DID. More specifically, something you said. Of your actions. You see the difference?

Since I said you were implying that I was "doing something improper," no, I'm afraid I can't see any difference between that and criticizing my actions. Nobody who speaks English will either. You criticized me hypocritically, justifying your attack on my behavior by claiming not to have done essentially the same thing. In other words, you were criticizing me with a lie. Any attack on your character as a result is fully justified by the fact that you were being a characterless twit.

Which you ironically tacked on the end, the very next sentence after whining about me making a personal attack. Ironic much? Do you see me on this thread calling you an idiot?

I feel you've provided ample evidence that you're a confused idiot, based on your combined output on this forum. You first didn't know whether being a Christian was or was not a good thing. Then you couldn't figure out if you even were a Christian. And now you try to accuse me of impropriety for choosing to offer up my own personal assessments in response to your defense of "average" theists, specifically Christians. I was on topic and attempted to justify the conclusions of my analysis. You responded by essentially calling me a judgemental poopy head. I feel no shame whatsoever in comparing the ethics of my making judgements of character, personality, and other traits compared to your attempt to derail the discussion and hypocritically condemn my character. Now I'm quite certain you disagree that you're not too bright. You have that right. I think you're an idiot. If you think my judging you is unethical, I do not care. I see nothing wrong with what I said or did, and your entire output since the initial charge has only served to solidify the credibility of my analysis.

Jacob:

Has she started speaking for the whole community and ordering you to obey her rules or leave yet? I have her on ignore since that level of pointless aggression is too much

Why should someone be an atheist?

Because there's no evidence that there are any gods.

It's amazing how many people seem to have so much trouble with that simple observation, isn't it?

^ just like people have a difficult time understanding that evolution occurs by pure chance.

I'll admit, when I was living in the Bible Belt of south east Kentucky, I made myself the laughing stock of my AP biology class by asking if evolution occurred by pure chance, rather than by my suspicion of there being something guiding the mutations to more preferable genetic functions. I was totally awestruck when I discovered this that my jaw hit the fucking floor. My poor intellectually starved brain finally found a spark of life that very moment though, and the chains of religion BDSM finally shattered a year later when I took physics in high school.
