I Would Like To Talk to Atheists Who Aren't Assholes. Do Any of You Exist?

[Lion IRC]

Well, I'm a distressed Catholic looking for answers to some very important questions, but so far the atheists who have responded to me have been rude and obnoxious.

And you are confirming my opinion, which I formed in another forum, that most atheists are assholes and really, they don't know how to debate or carry on a civilized conversation.

So really, if you guys don't get wise you are going to drive me off and I will leave with the impression that there's no point in talking to atheists.

And well, if the point of this forum is to gain converts to your cause, you guys are seriously blowing it if you don't act like normal people instead of jerks.

Please dont go. We need more biblical theists here.

You have to look at yourself as a catholic through their eyes.

What do they see?

Not... tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, or nakedness, peril, sword...neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come...nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature...

You gotta admit, that does come across as a little bit arrogant and inflexible doesnt it?

Now, put on your Whole Armour of God and suck it up. Whats the worst that can happen to you?

Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me.
....unless someone writes a name on a 1 KG rock and throws it at my head.
