I take it, that you must be appalled when others do that here, twisting the arguments and positions of others.
You "know" exactly zero about what appalls me here. FWIW, the best spoken theist here is still wrong. Take what you want from that statement. Your response illustrates precisely why I don't generally respond to theistic claims. If you don't get it, I'll understand.
Also, please explain your sig, as it relates to atheism. If that is too much of an affront in this thread, maybe you can start another to explain it.
As an aside, I'd like to comment that, in real life, people get to say all kinds of shit, but usually get their chops busted for it, except if they are religious, in which case people let them spout their shit, out of fear for the crazy person they see at their door. I'm looking forward to a world where crazy people don't come to my front door and spout their shit. Next, it will be the internet where crazy people like you won't be able to spout your shit. That will be a great day.
Well, in retrospect, to be fair, go ahead and spout your shit on the internet, There does seem to be a steady resistance, of which I approve. The more that people are educated, the less religious shit they will swallow.
Ok... if you don’t want to talk... doesn’t sound like you would listen anyway. That is your choice. It also does not surprise me much, if you are not consistent in your reasoning or judgement.
As for my sig... it doesn’t relate to atheism much at all. However I do find that it applies to some who call themselves atheists. But I mostly liked the quote. And I as well, am all for education...and reason. I find that both strengthen my faith.
Here is another quote for you.
Quote:A little philosophy inclineth man's mind to atheism, but depth in philosophy bringeth men's minds about to religion. Francis Bacon
