Exposing the Intellectual Bankruptcy of Atheists Criticizing Religion

[Delicate]

Please. After the verbal abuse and irrational hate you've thrown my way, an apology and a pledge to start afresh would be more fitting.

And don't you see how calling all atheists stupid, and incompetent, and illogical, and foolish, and all of the rest might be considered verbal abuse and engender a response in kind? -  -  -Particularly on an atheist forum?  

I'm still cautious.  I tend to think that reconciliation comes in baby steps if it is to have any chance at success.  Certainly you can understand that.

Frankly, if you walk like a duck, look like a duck, and quack like a duck, you ought not to complain when people call you a duck.

One thing you'll notice about me is that I'm always ready and willing to acknowledge substantive and quality posts.

My post history bears that out.

You have to at least be open minded to the possibility that what I'm saying is true. Look beyond the sting of the insult and ask yourself if it might be true.
