It's to get people to think. That's the point of it.
I read the updated OP. I've still got the impression that is a pointless thread. It's not constructed to achieve anything in particular but make theists see the irony disguised in the last paragraph, and have atheists notice that irony and virtualy bump fists and fret over it.
Again, all really basic stuff, extremely obvious, and no religious person ever would fall for it(at least I can't imagine it). You're probably going to assume after this post that I'm after you or something, and ignore me. I guess that's a risk I'll have to take. I'm just being honest and I hope, if my criticism is unfounded, that you set me straight.
Respectfully, EP.
