And I didn't call him any names, I told him to piss off. Clear enough?
Oh, I tried to answer your questions to the best of my knowledge in post #3. And I pointed out to you in the same post, as I did repeatedly, that taking us as a group is just flatout wrong, since there's no dogma or belief system involved.
Personally I don't care if you believe or disbelieve. It's your apparent refusal to listen to our answers on the fundamental flaws of your assumptions that makes me just a bit impatient. It gives the impression of a person having already formed their opinion and isn't ready to deviate even one inch from that.
Also, telling stimbo to piss off is meant as a polite and civil suggestion, I am sure.
Well I have already formed my opinion on whether or not Christians are Patriotic, and I won't deviate from that one inch.
I accept your answer that Atheists are only characterized by their dis-belief in God. Some of the answers I've gotten have helped me form the character I'm looking at. I'm not really sure what more than that you're looking for?
