Just big ole snooty non-empathetic dickholes when it comes to the Theists on the site. That minimalist guy is clearly a terrible human being. I am not that. I am indifferent, not malicious. My purpose here in 'using' you people is just to hear opinions, and bounce ideas off people. Which works out well, because that seems to be the purpose of this site existing. So I don't think I need to shroud my motivations in secrecy.
Actually, my assumption was not that you are malicious, but taking your words at face value when I called you amoral. Perhaps if you read closer you wouldn't draw these inapt conclusions?
Also, how is it you can call someone a "terrible human being" when you reject the precepts of morality?
You've overstated my maliciousness a few times (or maybe I'm misattributing someone else's statements to you). Maybe you are hung up on my willingness to kill and eat Rhythms family in a post apocalyptic kill or be killed scenario. I think, behavior wise, I'm fairly in line with most, I just talk/think about it a lot differently.
As for calling someone a terrible human being, the standard exists. My interest in letting the standard dictate my behavior doesn't change the existing of the standard. You guys have your community here, and maybe he's the loveable racist grandma character of the forum. I dunno why people seem okay with his over-the-top rage and hatefulness.
