Your software did not recognize my email as valid. Hence, I re-registered. As you note, I made no attempt to conceal this account as I used the same avatar
Can you understand why coming into a thread and accusing us of all hating God might cause us to get a little miffed?
I am not accusing anybody. I am stating my theological/philosophical position. One of my areas of reach is sociological phenomenology. Is it not a precious hypocracy that atheists mock and degrade theism, but when atheism comes under serious attack, you cry foul?
As it turns out, with your definition, none of us hate God...indeed, we all believe in God, since we all believe in existence (presumably). We call ourselves atheists not in reaction to your God, but in a reaction to the God of theism. We aren't apantheists, we're atheists.
Pantheism is a form a theism. Thus, you a-theism would reject Pantheism.
It is on the level of the human spirit that most atheists hate God.
It has nothing to do with believing things. I do not "believe" things. I am a rationalist which should be clear from the characteristics of my post.
What motivates me here is an agenda to awake atheists from what appears to shallow thinking and a dogmatic slumber.
You are the first to at least try to address my arguments in a rational manner. Otherwise, the posts have been expressions of naughty children.
Please dear atheists. Meet my arguments and/or defend your atheism, or not.
