This thread is inspired by Prabbit's debate on unicorns is debate on unicorns
What is the point of devoting so much time to learning so much about something we all (for the most part) have no belief in? Like arguing is the greatest past time! We come here and (some) recite bible passages, others argue about all the lurks and purks of various argumentitive fallacy, and the philosophical debates that go on and on about how powerful "god" is. And all the time, we've got fr0d0 etc making the least effort in posting proper argument, which is good because the site would be boring without such posters, yet everyone's cut and pasting page after page about details on something no atheist trully believes in and of whom most know cannot be rationalised.
I hate "god" more than the next atheist, I'm just trying to understand how this process isn't frivilous.
