So let's cut to the chase. Is it accurate to say people gather to support one another of Atheism to avoid submitting to any person claiming to represent God?
You guys always come back to this. I think it stems from the fact that you truly cannot fathom the rejection of your god for purely empirical reasons.
Thousands of times on this forum we have told theists why we don't believe. Thousands of times you ignore our reasons for the ones you make up, because it's easier to argue with your version.
The only conclusion is that you deliberately wish to misrepresent people in order to make yourself feel better about your perceived position relative to us. So be it. Just don't expect a rational conversation to follow.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
