So I decided to take the time out to share this thread with a vegetarian forum, just to see what they think, and here are some of their responses:
Quote:As an atheist all I have to say is you people are supposed to be the RATIONAL ones damn it! I skimmed some of the thread and wow. Just wow.
Quote:Half tempted to sign up just to put in an counter argument... This stuff is RIDICULOUS.
Quote:For a group that holds themselves up as rational and logical, they sure come out with some pretty ridiculous reasoning. Makes me think they didn't arrive at their rejection of the god hypothesis using logic and reason at all, but just jumped on the bandwagon. They also like to spout about how they are persecuted for their lack of belief in God, yet then bully veg*ns in exactly the same way. It's sickening and hypocritical to me and one of the reasons I no longer take part in any atheist groups online. Their inconsistency and hypocrisy is staggering at times (sweeping generalization I know).
For prime example from that thread. Atheists belittle believers for using circular reasoning.
"God is true because the bible says he is, the bible is true because it is the inerrant word of god"
So to see the following from a so-called creature of reason, is incredibly annoying to me : "Meat is good cuz meat is good"
Don’t ask.
