Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?

God is all knowing. We're not. He's obviously in much better position to make correct judgments than we are.

Quote:The Bible tells us that god hardened Pharaoh's heart. Yet Christians still find some kind of way to make Pharaoh responsible. By putting yourself in line with this worldview, you betray an inability to think either rationally or compassionately.
The bible also says that pharaoh hardened his own heart.

Quote:You claim to disagree with us but you don't look at the whole picture. And you don't address what we are saying. You just pick some little thing and disagree with it. That is dishonest.

Go to a theist board and try being in the minority role, with 5 or 10 people jumping in on your conversation, and see if you can address every point made to you.
1. If god is in a better position to make better judgments than I can, then why doesn't her? Your whole argument rests on "might makes right," and that just doesn't hold water with a lot of people. Justify it all you want to.
2. I should give you a kudos, no I should give you a rep for pointing out yet another biblical contradiction.
3. I'm not an evangelist for atheism, so I don't go to theist websites. You, on the other hand, came here as a troll. The fact that you weren't banned is, in part, due to our patience and open-mindedness and, in part, due to us letting you have enough rope to hang yourself trying to defend the indefensible.
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
