PLEASE, CL, please tell me that this is you just being facetious! You've been here long enough to understand (hopefully) that we are not 'angry at the idea of a god', we actually do not believe a god exists.
What is it? Is your automatic Catholic indoctrination kicking in? I've had more than my share of Catholics dishonestly inform me, that I am an atheist because I am 'angry at god'.
I know you don't believe God exists. Which is why I didn't suggest that you were angry AT God, I said the IDEA of God. As in, you wouldn't like it if God did exist and would be angry at Him if He was real. Anyway that's been my impression of most people here, and has nothing to do with "catholic indoctrination", as you put it, since nothing in catholic doctrine states that atheists are angry at God. But as I said earlier in the thread, I must have misunderstood/misinterpreted people's sentiments.
I disagree. You catholic indoctrination is what makes you think atheists are angry at the idea of god and would hate him if he was found to exist. You are so convinced you're right that you confuse hate with clear thinking.
I am angry that so many accept the Judeo-christian god with no concern of whether his existance is an actual fact, and then go on to denigrate people who actually think and reason for thinking and reasoning.

What's your point?
That a real god, if he gave a damn, would give clear evidence for his existance. If not, then why jump thru hoops?

I don't believe in magic; I believe that people differ, and from the obvious they will never unite. Good luck unifying Arabia if you can ! or Asia or Europe. Brixit was an example. The verse applies very well
You must, if you can quote god.
