And some are angry at God because they know He has called them and they do not want to answer.
I'm not going to discuss it further because it makes you angry. But I did think her OP was poorly stated. That's all. Out.
I'm not angry, dude, I'm just perplexed, and I suspect that you can't answer the question I'm actually asking you, which is why you're being so remarkably evasive over it. I asked you how you know there are people here who are angry at god, and your response, where it addresses that question at all, is simply a restatement: "Some are angry at god." How do you know that?
Honestly, it's a simple question, and I asked it for a reason, which is that a lot of the time, these common theistic talking points about atheists don't have a lot behind them. Every time I ask one of you guys about this it seems like it's difficult for you to properly vocalize your thinking on this point; if you actually have a reason for believing that then great, that seems like something worth talking about that's in keeping with the purpose of this thread. If you don't, then it'd be nice if you'd just admit it, because watching you so obviously avoiding the question just makes you look increasingly shifty and frankly, there's no reason to bring up an argument based on nothing but fantasy when there's real conversations that could be had instead.
