My cynicism comes from previous experience with self- identifying Christians on this forum.Those people almost invariably have an agenda and are incapable of independent thought. A hint is a broad question without stating a position.The question itself often reveals some basic ignorance. In your case a lack of understanding of the term 'atheist'.
Then,after having a few teeth extracted the apologist will present its own position, invariably heavy on authority and dogma and light on science and logic.
When pressed,the apologist will attempt to provide a scientific explanation for its position and fail badly. Perhaps THE most popular apologist cliche is an appeal to the Second Law Of Thermodynamics.The explanation given invariably shows a profound ignorance of that law.
Your posts have followed a tediously predictable pattern.I neither resile from nor apologise for my initial cynicism.
