I am an assertive atheist because logic states that everything that does exist has matter. It is illogical to state that something can exist yet not exist, therefore there is nothing besides biology in our construction or abilities. For this reason, I am certain that I am correct, and certain that theists and spiritualists are merely too immature to grasp the concept of being less than cosmic.
I do not offer most theists respect, because their wishful thinking costs lives every second of every day, and our social composition ensures that it runs contrary to the ultimate goal of survival.
You interest me. I don't meet many people who claim to be "aggressive atheists" most of them just want people to shut up and let them live their lives. Yours is a very interesting position indeed, their are certainly enough aggressive Christians out there, so it only seems fair. There is a part of me that thinks, "I want to see this person's skills" because logic and debate are so much fun for me. Then there's the part of me that doesn't have that much time.
I was wondering what you meant by "costs lives every second of every day." Do you really think Christianity kills more people than it saves? Does the net difference equal out to 31 million people a year?
