I came to this forum not to brag about my kindness, but to be one of members and share my arguments for God's nonexistence. But I can't stand it when someone is insulted, and that's why I made this thread - so atheists can see their mistakes and stop being so rude. I didn't name this thread: ''Look at my kindness!''. I want to show you the errors of your ways, how you decrease your efficiency by being rude.
You don't care about being above people but have no problem starting a thread to point out how others are lesser for using insults and show them the "error of [their] ways." Besides, people's rudeness doesn't exist in a vacuum. Much of the time there is a context behind it that needs to be understood.
By the way, how rude is it to ride in on your high horse and insist everyone behave exactly as you do? If you want to deal with the issue of respect, take a long, hard look in the mirror first before you berate others with your self-righteous pomposity and word policing.
