The anti-theism "door" is not a stance of the existence of a god, and so your little "material substantiation" bit was garbage. Talk out of your ass, I'll point it out. Next time you summarize the final point of confluence between another's position and your own, at least know wtf you're talking about (I sometimes wonder, in these situations whether the issuer is unclear only on the position of others:leading to misapprehension...or whether they may be unclear on both their own position and the position of another - leading to hilarity). If you're having an issue of terminus at that door, the door of material proof or substantiation...then it isn't an issue you're having with anti-theism. Rgr?
All of your posts replying to me rhythm to me read like substantiation of my points. Somehow you always manage to winkle in some angst against me as well. I don't know if I should thank you or join you in beating on me.

IMO the case against Christianity is lots of little things instead of one big thing - death by a thousand cuts. On so many data points, atheist explanations are natural and Christian explanations seem unlikely.
You are correct wmd.
Ditto the reasons against theism. Atheist explanations in those cases I would see as scientific and beyond doubt. Meaning and purpose however we derive from our world views. Which is most rational?
