What is not to understand? You have a pet invisible fictional friend you falsely believe is real. You hit the panic button when I simply say "so what" other people have other pet fictional super heros too. YOU hit the panic button when I say "take a number".
Your problem with me is I don't get distracted by your Yellow Brick road convoluted tactics. I wouldn't give one rats ass if you claimed your god's name was Frank and there was a 100,000 year old book that claimed your god Frank was real. I don't buy it when Muslims or Jews or Hindus do it either. And please remember I once believed myself so don't fucking pull that bigot shit.
The only person here not grasping reality is you. You don't understand there is a gigantic difference between what you want to be real, and what you can prove is real. You think you are special and get pissed when I tell you that other people with other beliefs truly believe as fervently as you do, that they are right. And again, I say SO WHAT.
It never occurs to you that YOU could be wrong. It never occurs to you that you are merely protecting your own ego because you don't want to feel you wasted all this time on a fantasy. It would be too embarrassing for you so rather than face that embarrassment, like many of us here did, and accepted, because unlike you the truth was too important to us to falsely cling to something we couldn't defend, instead of considering you got it wrong, you resist because your feelings of what you want are more important to you than facts.
Now the FACTS are that the only place we find any type of thinking process is within biological evolution. There is absolutely NO evidence of thoughts existing outside a biological process in life. On top of that we have MOUNDS of evidence that humans can and do make up gods and all sorts of stupid superstitions, not just what you have swallowed. MANY of us here used have all sorts of woo we fell for and grew out of.
The truth you don't want to face, the truth many of us her finally faced, is that we, meaning the ones here who once believed, is that it was nothing but our own selfish desires and wishful thinking. That is how ALL religions start and ALL superstitions start. Someone gets a thought in their head, they don't care to question it, they simply go with it because it "feels right" and "sounds good". That is what I was doing when I believed, and that is all you are doing now. And that is what Jews and Hindus and Shintoists and Scientologists do too. You are not special and ARE making the same mistake I made and Jews and Muslims and all religious people make.
Two things, 1) I did not boo ya you, i boo ya-ed equlax mind your own posts, you seem to have enough trouble with the comments directed to you, let alone trying to manage someone elses stuff.
2) your whole last post is an example of why I can not take you seriously. You have a natural progression to try and trump every conversation with 'no proof of God.' You did it here. So why should I waist my time if I know you will end everything you begin with this line, in one form or another?
As I have told you a 100 times I have no proof to give you. Only God can give you proof, and before He will give you anything you understand you have been commanded to humble yourself before Him, but your pride demands proof, and so on it goes.
So again don't take offense, but you are one that i can not do anything for. You want what God is not willing to give unless you make the first step. You won't so their is nothing else to do. That is why i do not see you as a bigot. Your just a benign poster who does not agree with theism.
so meh,
Oh yea, this coming from someone who has an invisible friend. Just remember that always. You cant take me seriously yet you insist that somehow magically your tin foil hat gets you a cosmic bat phone to the big guy upstairs.
No, if I claimed I could fart a Lamborghini out of my ass you'd be absolutely right not to take such a claim seriously. But don't lecture me about what should be taken seriously when you claim to have an invisible friend.

I am not insisting on a damned thing from a fictional character. That would be like me expecting Superman to save me. You don't expect anything from Mickey Mouse do you? You don't demand that Harry Potter buy you a broom do you?
I am talking about YOU and your absurd logic, in the same ignorance that kept me believing for so long. I am talking about the bad use of logic that leads humans to make up gods and swallow what sounds pretty to them.
