All lives have intrinsic value. I fell pity for some people who can't respect others simply because they happen to think differently for them. We are all one race, one species, all our lives are equally valuable, it doesn't matter our differences, we should think more about what we have in common.
If those people lack intellect or values to understand all lives are valuable independently of belief or lack of it, then don't hate them, feel sorry for them, those poor things, I wish I could make them see how their stupidity harms the world, and worse yet that kind of stupidity is contagious between family and friends.
But I have to remind them that my life has value because they think it doesn't for being an atheist, of course I pity them for they do not know better but I feel like it's my place to defend my position in life at all times. I wasn't saying my life has value and theirs doesn't, just a reminder to them that they're talking to an actual person and not some recorded voice they can say awful things to. I understand that people think I should roll with the punches but I'd rather correct the problem than just say, hey you have your opinion I have mine. If I think their opinion is harmful horseshit I wanna let them know that, especially if they're telling me I'm a worthless sack of shit.
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.

Well, luckily, you can. To assume otherwise is to silently make the same sort of dismissive claim about them as they have so carelessly made about you.

1 Peter 3:15 But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect
So what's with telling an atheist they are a waste of a life...So I decided to stoop to that level because nobody is going to tell me I'm worthless, fuck that. So I told him if he really believes in heaven, why doesn't he go there now, what's the hold up? Maybe because it's bullshit and he knows it...Besides, there's nothing against suicide in the bible, Christians always point to not murdering. But suicide is by definition not murder, so it's just spin.
Maybe that's harsh, but even on online video games I've gotten people to call my life worthless and I should kill myself just for claiming atheism. So I have to point out that my life has intrinsic value since this is the only life I've got and they think this life is just a doormat to wipe your feet on.

Telling someone to kill themselves isn't stooping to my level (you were far below my level from the beginning and have only dug yourself deeper with every post).
You are a waste of what was given to you (you have access to education yet do nothing to increase your knowledge) and you making some bullshit thread to whine about my comment further proves it. Get a fucking life.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Hmmm, seems like everyone disagrees with you here, what a shock. I'm not telling you to do anything, what I said to you was a question. Sorry you missed that.

If you call someone a waste of life, get ready to get your life worth called into question as well for doing so.
I'll say this though, the world is better off without people like you poisoning the next generation with lies and telling people they have no worth for a disagreement, you're a child, I pity your ignorance. I mean, it's really obvious for a Christian like you, if you think heaven is real, go there. Sacrifice your life doing something noble or give your body to though who need organs. Anything but telling random strangers they have no worth just because they disagree with you in a thread. You cherry-picking scumbag.

I have managed to change the views some Christians hold about atheists and dismiss their fallacious presumptions. But if they genuinely believe my thoughts are bullshit I can't force the truth upon them (after all, they believe to hold the truth)

And, I guarantee you wouldn't call people a waste of life in person Polaris. You'd get knocked out or choked unconscious, that's why you use the internet like a keyboard warrior.
Remember when you said "the dumbest theists don't use the internet?" you couldn't have been more ironic in that statement...

I'm starting to think that all browsers should have a dialogue box pop up when you start it that says, "You are now entering the internet. Do not proceed until you grow a pair."

Sorry that I don't live in skinhead-land you like do to not know that saying someone is a waste is the same as telling them to kill themselves...but maybe even you saw how white trash your post was so you decided to defend it with bullshit.

I see you are a fucking liar as well.
I don't tell people to kill themselves because they might actually do it, but that is not the same as saying you are a waste because you have wasted your life (it would be OK if you were real about it, but you're not). You can make up all your fucking BS like your skinhead buddies, but you're full of shit and have not amounted to anything. In the end, because of people like you, the developing nations will be the ones who will succeed.
When I see you, yes I would like fries with that...
