Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion

[Mister Agenda]

False. Data from sources like this survey from the Pew forum on Religious Religion and Public Life consistently show that, in general, atheists and agnostics are better informed about religion(s) than anyone else.


Personally, I spent 20+ years rigorously studying the Bible in a ministry household, plus part of my college career studying various other world religions, and I can tell you with certainty that straw men are completely unnecessary when it comes to dismantling the supposed veracity of the Bible (or other superstitious gibberish, for that matter).


Your condescension toward people's imaginary anger is merely a deflection technique you've employed to avoid supporting anything you've said in this thread so far. All you've really done here is posted an article, declared "I agree with this article!" and when it's pointed out to you that there are major problems with the claims forwarded from the get-go of the article, you immediately resort to, "Nope, you're just dumb...and angry. READ MY ARTICLE!"


You are a sad little man. Make some friends or something.

I wouldn't apply the results of a broad survey on the narrow slice of this forum's population. That's like taking a survey of the nation's IQ, and inferring that the Kardashians must be on par.

But if it's true that you have spent 20+ years rigorously studying the Bible in a ministry household (and I expect you mean something academically credible, not the Westboro Baptist or atheistforum.org equivalent of "rigorous study"), then point me to one of your critiques.

I'd love to read your thoughtful criticisms.

Above, you applied the results of your personal impressions here to atheists in general. Your standards are elusive.
