Again this goes back to the pretense that atheists have a monopoly on logic and reason. I find it hard to believe that some of the AF members I respect would applaud this kind of intolerance.
Except that I was't commenting on any two options for people rejecting atheism..I was commenting on a specific and common line you have a compulsion to repeat. In your case, it appears to be dishonesty rather than illness...if I had to choose between the two....though personally.....there's a third option I'd go for in combo with it. You just don't know any better, and don't have a better way to express the POV that was spoonfed to you in ignorance. I suppose, though..that this is just another form of simple dishonesty...with oneself, one's knowledge, and ones claimed mastery of rational thought.
Meanwhile, I'm still here, still loving Bach...and you're still avoiding -any- discussion of your own ineptly framed declarations regarding atheism. Now you've moved on to yet another common line christing types have a compulsion for...."intolerance". More accurately translated as "boo hoo, someone disagreed with me..and had the audacity to call out the garbage I peddle for what it is".
