Oh - do not think I was in anyway being cynical or sarcastic or suggesting that you were oversimplifying things.
I fully advocate the statement you made hehe. Which I'd said it myself first.
Or my own equivalent like: "Give my one reason to no longer go on believing that the bible is a load of total and utter bullshit in page form! (Other than perhaps an interesting document for entirely historical purposes - as far as I'm concerned it's a pile of fucking bullcrap)." - or something to that effect lol.
And yeah it CAN be annoying when Christians are so ignorant as to stereotype us atheists like that...
But my own PERSONAL reaction is when I'm not pitying their ignorance I'm trying not to laugh in their face...
In fact, basically it's always both; simultaneous for me lol - I pity their ignorance while trying not o explode with laughter in their face. I'm still in disbelief that people can believe that shit so sincerely and really BE that ignorant - I think I always WILL BE in disbelief over that. It's HARD for me to not laugh about it man...
It's either concealed or in-concealed laughter; but it's often only in my head, entirely mental - because if it wasn't I'd probably die from laughing out loud so often lol, whether constantly HARD laughter or not hehe. Cos I'm laughing a LOT mentally whenever I'm talking to a theist lol hehe - I don't think I'd be able to function if that was all external LOL.
EvF
