But to laugh at what men consider great does not mean you believe in god.

This is just a strawman that your own biases have convinced you is real. How about we try to have a discussion about what an atheist actually is instead of your own fantastical belief of what one is?

Ha ha. Offended? Only a tiny, credulous mind would be offended by such nonsensical drivel. I was saying that I only felt pity, because you thought you were actually saying something deep and insightful. All of your snarky replies, projections of your inadequacies, and insistence that an atheist conform to your own misconceptions, however, has erased any lingering pity I felt.
