RE: MY FATWA: Why atheists are corrupted, arrogant, and totally brain dead!

Well, Niqabi, this is not even a "fatwa" because you didn't attempt to support your opinions with any reasoning nor with the Quranic principles. This is only a display of hatred.
Secondly, I think that your reaction to the atheists in this forum is extremely over the top. It is simply unreasonable, IMO.
And more importantly, the worst thing about your post is that you have made some sweeping generalizations about atheists. By definition, an atheist is someone who does not believe in a god (or gods). However, unfortunately, you have made several statements about their character without supporting them with any logic or proof aside from your own experiences. Do I agree with you? From the bottom of my heart, certainly not. I do not agree with you that atheists are stubborn, selfish, arrogant, corrupted, stupid, "brain dead," or anything else that you wrote in your post. Of course, there may be many atheists who do have those qualities, but they are not present only in atheists. Rather, those are human qualities which are present in almost everyone to a certain extent (in both theists and atheists). Therefore, I think that your perception of atheists is highly inaccurate and even biased.
Furthermore, contrary to what you said, I think that an atheist is very much capable of mercy and kindness in many greater degrees than a believer of religion while, of course, the vice versa is also true. Some atheists are also very patient and tolerant of theists as well as their beliefs. Even in this forum, for example, there is one such remarkable atheist that I know of, and his name is Tiberius, the creator and admin of this forum.
As for the 25% warning, you got that because you were flaming and that is against the rules. But, if you want to leave, then just leave. Don't feel bad about that.
