Rejection of All that is Holy

[Ryantology]

By way of analogy, my belief that horses not a food source (a uniquely American attitude) remains passive until I am presented with a plate of horse meat and I actively reject it in disgust. Something important is missing by failing to consider that simply holding a specific belief, like ‘horses are not a food source’ fosters a disposition in the person holding the belief.

And, what a complete disaster of an analogy.

1. I can be unwilling to eat horse meat and still acknowledge that it is a human food source. I would deny that it was a food source only if it was something humans could not consume for nutrition.
2. You're not actually presenting me with horse meat and asking me to consider whether or not it's food. You're presenting me with horse meat and insisting that there is no other food in existence.
3. Only, that's not right, either. You're not actually presenting me with horse meat at all. You're presenting me with an empty plate and telling me that there's horse meat there, and insisting that I see only an empty plate because I reject your claim that it contains horse meat.
4. The entire basis for this thread is maliciously dishonest. Those of us who don't identify as positive/strong atheists don't reject the concept of a god (at least, not technically). We reject all claims of god's existence because almost all of them contradict and none of them meet the standards of evidence we apply (or, should apply) to claims of any kind.
