See, if I say, 'MysticKnight, you're about as coherent as a rabid howler monkey on angel dust', that is an insult.  If I say, 'MysticKnight, your arguments regarding the existence of God all fail because  you're about as coherent as a rabid howler monkey on angel dust', THAT would be ad hominem. 

I hope this clears things up for you.

Context is key. If it's done in reply to an argument, it's obvious a way to belittle the argument.

As the threads filled with these insults are always in reply to proofs of God presented by me,  it is a way to resort to implying the second, but people won't state that way obviously, because it sound illogical.

Instead their replies are just mockery and insults.
You need to take a break.  Maybe a permanent one.  You need to get it through your head that most atheists here on AF do not find your book of fairytales seriously, and never will.  You need to accept that.  Stop talking at people.  We don’t like it.

Wiser words were never spoken.
