Atheism is the punk rock of religion

I didn't think you'd be honest enough to.

That was you arguing with Rhythm that atheists can have supernatural beliefs. Which they can and do. Why not pop into your thread and defend that BTW?

I presented the prominant view here on AF, as stated. It isn't my view. I'm presenting you with what others on this forum, and in that thread about your claims, you will find to be true.

You said that this was my claim, when it was not. You misquoted me saying that was all that I said, and it wasn't all that I'd said. the obove quote of my post which you refused to even check proves that conclusively.

It isn't my view, as I have shown.

Here you acknowledge that other peoples opinions are involved.
Are you pulling ageism again? Are you suggesting that I should be wiser than yourself by virtue of age?

Well that's that one dealt with. Lets move on to fail #2.

RaphaelDrake Wrote:Consumerism is *not* a religion and neither is Atheism. Deal with it.
Then why did you quote a dictionary saying:-
RaphaelDrake Wrote:Re-lig-ion

"A pursuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance. IE consumerism is the new religion"

We've already agreed upon the other definition of religion covered by your quote. I'm not interested in that. What I'm interested in persuing is your other interesting point: that atheism, LIKE consumerism, can be a persuit or interest to which someone ascribes supreme importance to. ie atheism is the new religion.

Contraction opportunity 2.
Did you in fact concede the above point? As you have been quoted clearly doing. Or do you deny that?

Remember: we both agree that atheism isn't a religion in the sense that Christianity, Islam or Judaism is a religion. Please don't roll that one out YET again after we've cleared that one away SO many times now. Thanks Wink
