I'm a cunt for asking where you stand on religion?
Atheism is a confession of what you believe.
Agnosticism is a claim regarding knowledge.
I, like most atheists, are agnostic atheists and we have no problem informing people about this.
'7/7 Dawkinsian cunts' as you so gracefully put it, are gnostic atheists, this means they claim to know that a god doesn't exist. Gnostic atheists are quite rare so I have a hard time believing that you are being 'persecuted' by them.
Here is a list of possible stances, please pick the one that you are.
Agnostic: atheist / theist/ deist / pantheist
Gnostic: atheist / theist / deist / pantheist.
Apparently you don't like labels, but if you want to have a worthwhile discussion with anyone about religion, first they will need to know what your stance is and unfortunately the easiest and quickest way is to use a label.

I never asked for your opinion 'you fucking retard'. Again, I question your reading comprehension skills.

That says absolutely nothing about his intentions with regards to a relationship. I asked you to show me a sentance from the OP that showed that he wanted to disown his father. You have failed.
