All of my posts to theists are to make fun of them. "Engaging" idiots who believe in ancient fairy tales is a rather pointless exercise. One day, you will either wise up and figure out how badly you have been conned by a bunch of power-hungry motherfuckers or not. Your choice.
My "atheism" needs no shoring up. Your god is just as fucking stupid as every other god invented by the mind of man.
In the meanwhile you might ask yourself why you show up at an atheist forum? Are you here to preach about your bullshit or do you just enjoy being abused? Does it make you feel like a martyr? ( P.S. most of the martyr stories are bullshit, too.)
I find it interesting to engage with you - humourous in fact - you betray much about yourself as a person.
You attempt to ridicule people, but only succeed in framing yourself as a child.
You speak the way you do because you want to feel powerful, you want to feel clever / funny.
This is because you are not powerful, or clever, or funny, in real life, isnt it? You probably have quiet a sad, empty life away from the keyboard, dont you?
You resent my presence here, not because I have a different world view to you, but because I show you up for what you are. You also resent me because I demonstrate that your cheap caricature of religious people - the one you like to regularly attack as a straw man - is untrue.
Far from being credulous, or simple, it is resoundingly clear that I am significantly more intelligent than you, and significantly better informed about the world than you.
Accordingly, you are unable to engage with me on any level other than at your most infantile.
I think you are a sad, tragic character. I dont bear you any ill will however; on the contrary, I sincerely hope you can repair your life and personality.
However, you will definitely need to drop the bile, (i.e. your defence / coping mechanism), in order to see what problems in your life have to be addressed - it seems to me that your perma-rages obscure the root of your difficulties.
Your use religion as a vent for your anger and bile, which comes from your dissatisfaction with your life. Ironically, in this sense you "need" religion.
You are pig-ignorant and angry at the world - which is not an uncommon personality among atheists - your prefer to attack religion (which should be an irrelevance to you) because you dare not confront your real problems, whatever they may be.
