Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion
The only thread that is not an insult in the very first title of the post is the one in red - - - and that's because it's so stupid that a reader would assume it's a joke.
The first two are not insults at all.
The third wasn't intended as an insult, but I can see how one can take it as an insult.
The fourth isn't an insult.
The fifth and sixth do seem to be insults. Though I didn't intend it to be.
It's a mixed bag. Not all insulting.
Perhaps you have a cognitive bias that ignores evidence that doesn't fit with your a priori assumptions.
I thought we were in truce mode?
Why the "There are so many interpretations of the Bible" claim is confused 11/03/2015 This could be seen as a general statement that some folks are confused, yes, and not an insult. Except for the obvious implication that the poster is ready to tell us all the answers that they have and we do not. That's insulting.
Why atheism cannot escape absolute truth 11-05-2015 Another title that MIGHT be construed as just a musing start of a conversation. But you're on an atheist forum. The implication is that you have an absolute proof to provide which SHOULD enlighten atheists. So it's insulting.
Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion? 11-05-2015 That's an obvious slam. Ill-informed is thinly veiled "stupid" and again, you are obviously going to fill in the gaps of our ignorance.
Yes, Atheism is a Religion 12-22-2015
The New Atheists are back — and dumber than ever You admitted that "dumber than ever" might be an insult. It's quite amazing that you claim it wasn't intended - and yes, you are referring to an article you read, but the implication is that "dumber than ever" probably also applies to us.
When Atheists Can't Think Episode 1: No Evidence for God? Again, you admitted that "can't think" was somehow NOT intended as an insult.
Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion "Intellectual Bankruptcy" - where did you get that one? Yep, going on to a forum where most of the members are highly educated and starting a thread calling them intellectually bankrupt - - yeah, that's a compliment, they're just going to LOVE you and want to pay attention to everything you say.
Yep. Troll 101. I hope you don't interact with people in real life like you have with us. Because if you do, this is coming:
