Because I’ve never seen you counter even one of the hundred or so fallacious arguments trotted out here daily by your fellow theists. So, you don’t feel you have any responsibility at all to foster a positive argument for your position, but you think we are responsible for counter-arguments? How does that work exactly?
Not that I haven't countered theist arguments (There's RobertE, and not to mention there's plenty of theists I disagree with politically), I have made it pretty clear that I disagree with 100% of denominational doctrine, hence the "I believe in God, not religion" under 'religious views'. Furthermore what would countering theist arguments accomplish on an atheist discussion forum?
I dunno...establish integrity? I mean, if you’re here to counter bad arguments in the name of logic, I’d think you’d want to be countering all of them, regardless of which side they come from.

False analogy. We actually have evidence of life existing here, now don’t we?

Refusing to accept evidence does not equate to no evidence being presented.
LOL. I don’t know why I bother. Yes, thank you, actually, for linking to that stupid thread so that anyone following along can check out your earth-shattering evidence of light.
