Now the problem is that most of religious people have about four "arguments" and no matter how corny or uneducated these "arguments" are they are so excited about them and start numerous topics with them, which they usually are:Proves my theory that religion is a result of lazyness
- you can't see air, or pain or love - therefore God exist
-science can't explain something at the moment, therefore this is god, god exists
-religion feels good therefore god exists
-they themselves don't understand some particular branch of science or can't see that something is a fraud they conclude god exists
So instead of picking up a science book, and actually learning, they come here and make total idiots of themselves, they don't want to listen and don't understand why we're so angry.
For starters there are so many science writers that write about science that really anyone with normal intelligence can understand. Really, religious people, if you plan to open another topic with some of the upper "arguments" for god's existence as main theme read a science book first and I'll give you recommendations:
-"Magic of Reality" by Richard Dawkins;
-books by Isaac Asimov like "Wellsprings of Life" which is about evolution and he also wrote numerous other books aimed to be easily understood like three tomes on physics that truly anybody can understand physics, or some of his books of essays; or legendary "Asimov's New Guide to Science"
-books of essays by Stephen Jay Gould. He really gave some thorough and simple explanation of scientific concepts like evolution
-"Flim-Flam!" by James Randi will really help you to think critically especially if you think ghosts, demons, holy men, gods and aliens are all around us.
Really, read these books and then come here. It will make our job easier, because for the most of the time we atheists have to educate you in stuff you were supposed to learn in school, so your arguments are not even laughably stupid but tragically stupid. It's not a shame that if you missed the opportunity to get educated to start now, shameful is still refusing to do it in-spite the informational age we live in.
