Are Anti-theists really the "mean atheists?"

That's why I have a beef with moderates, because everyone who goes around saying faith is a virtue is playing a part in keeping the trickery going.

Do moderates actually do this? Sounds more characteristic of fundamentalists.

Well, I didn't mean they all literally state it, although some certainly do. But it is implicit in their actions and discussion. I mean, on English radio they have a whole section where they look at things from a "faith perspective". Those are the exact words.

If you debate a theist long enough they eventually have to retreat behind, "I have faith", or else talk utter bullshit. Clearly they think this faith is a good thing, rather than just the pathetic excuse that it is.

This is how it all seems to me, anyhow
