In what capacity has he failed to answer any of your questions? Which question do you feel has not been answered in his description quoted above?
I saw the post, Lady, he didn't answer my questions. In fact, he wasn't even talking to me in that post. You were wrong. So let's move on.

I’m sure you know which fallacy that is. Why are you badgering a self-proclaimed atheist to tell you what he believes about a god or gods? That doesn’t make any sense. If you ask someone if they believe a claim, and their answer is, “I don’t know yet; I’m still learning”, you realize that can be a perfectly intellectually honest answer that doesn’t violate the definition of atheism, yes?
Interestingly enough, I've seen him argue adamantly against the fact that he's an atheist.

Well, he can start by answering my questions about the soul.

I do too. We agree.

It's very relevant, how don't you see that? Are you that dense? I am really surprised here. The only claims Bel does make that we've seen so far are unsubstantiated generalizations made in an attempt to insult people.

I guess some atheists find that intimidating. *shrugs* Also, not everyone takes philosophy seriously, and that’s fine. It’s not for everyone.
LMAO. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

Tolerate is a good word to use there. Very telling
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
