1. I did NOT say this, and have actually said the complete opposite from this MANY times in this forum. Including just a few pages back. But you know that.
2. If God didn't exist I would not believe in "human rights" in the sense that they are rights that are inherent to humanity. This is the position of MANY of the atheists here. So you trying to paint me as a bad person for saying I would take the common atheist view makes absolutely 0 sense.
3. Once again, this is the same exact position of a lot of people here. Have you not been reading these responses? Did you not see my conversation with JennyA? Did you not read the thread I linked you to??
You are misrepresenting me, putting words in my mouth, continuously accusing me of things I never said and don't believe, and condemning me for saying that if I was atheist I would have the same views regarding these things as many atheists here.
Like I said before, I did not come to this site to be treated like this by a grown man. You seemed to get better for a second there and interested in having an honest discussion, so I gave you a second chance. I've been trying to like you as a forum member, I really have. Now I see you are back to your old self. It was a mistake for me to have started trying to engage in conversation with you again.
This will be my last post to you. Have a good night.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
