Polaris, your reply above to Padraic is what I would call a descent to the "Holy Spirit garbage talk". Usually, when a Christian realizes he's talking rubbish, and there's a great deal of rubbish that a Christian can spew from his mouth, he will go into stupid one-liners that sound insane and meaningless or that are pure accusations without the smallest basis. Children do that very often. For us Christians, it's almost as if the Holy Spirit that supposedly dwell in us is making us utter such silly garbage and hence my delightful name for this kind of utterance.
Polaris, I know you are angry because you know what I have written about ourselves is true. We do sound stupid in most forums or at least most Christians. They've even set up dedicated websites to laugh at the really stupid things that can only come from the "anointed" lips of Christians.
I'm trying to show by this thread that there is a reason why we sound stupid. It's because we believe in superstitious RUBBISH. Let's not mince our words. If someone believes in the supernatural powers of a witchdoctor, of course he will sound like someone who badly needs a lobotomy. The same with us.
I believe that the world will be a better place for all of us if there is complete understanding all round. Atheists need to understand why we sound stupid and we need to understand why atheists are impatient with some of us. We can't have it both ways. If we insist on defending our so vulnerable unicorn or worse, if we even try to make schools teach a belief in the unicorn (as I understand American schools can be that insane sometimes), I really don't blame atheists for not treating us with kid gloves. Even I as a Christian have very little patience with Christian insanity. I don't blame atheists if they can't take our nonsense.
The day will come when Christians will all wise up and drop their superstitious beliefs but we have a long way to go.
Even unbelievers understand the difference between themselves and self-proclaimed (I assume you do so in public at least) Atheists like yourself.
The day will come when you Anglo Atheists start acting just like the rational European atheists, but that is a long way off....until then, we just have to accept you pulling the same BS that Christian Fundamentalists in the US shove unto us.
You can't expect us to take your side when you aren't even honest with yourself.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.
