Quote:What I find chiefly offensive about them is not that they are skeptics or atheists; rather, it is that they are not skeptics at all and have purchased their atheism cheaply, with the sort of boorish arrogance that might make a man believe himself a great strategist because his tanks overwhelmed a town of unarmed peasants, or a great lover because he can afford the price of admission to a brothel.
It's not our fault that the theist position is so weak.
I don't feel like an intellectual wizard when I conclude a verbal takedown of some Christian chump. I feel like what I am: an average person dealing with someone who is (at least in one very important aspect) a complete retard. I feel like I'm playing football against a four year old. To debate a theist as if the theist position were equal would be to give their position credit it simply doesn't deserve.
You assholes have had 2000 years to figure your shit out.
