The word salad charge just makes atheists look so ignorant and anti-intellectual that it confirms one's faith in God.
With complaints like these, religion looks like the side of knowledge while atheism send to belong to the dark ages.
The dark ages were caused by religion. Our words pale in comparision to what religions lead people - and still do - to do.
You are not trying hard to make yourself a respectable member of this forum. We have theists that are respected and don't need to waver their beliefs.
Bashing your god or religion isn't bashing you. Its a simple concept.
Second, I'm doing what you describe. Bashing a stupid belief system, bashing stupid arguments, and bashing stupid people.
The rest are fine.
