Name-calling is what you reduced the discussion to. But at least I addressed the discussion in a rational manner, by pointing out the intellectual bankruptcy of your activity in this thread.

This may come as a surprise to you but I imagine that most of us WERE xtians (or one ilk or another) at one time. We have rejected your fairy tales (there's those words again) because 'talking snakes', 'virgin births' and 'dead jews coming back to life' make no sense in a rational world. So, if anyone is out of place around here, it is you.I've been an atheist as well. And how do you know what "all I really want" is? Are you inside my mind, are you me? You simply assume the worst. I created this thread to engage in some intellectual dialogue with atheists. I was serious about it, and so were many others who participated in the debate, unlike you. I didn't create it to "be more holy" than others.
The people who are the most bigoted are the people who have no convictions at all.
