Atheists are Intolerant

[Tempus]

Well, they did refer to the specific instance of Jessica Ahlquist.

Oh yes, I perhaps wasn't clear enough. I did say "up until now". I've changed the order of that paragraph and the quote it follows to make my meaning more clear.

[Xyster]

I'm an intollerant ATHEIST. I HATE religion with the intencity of a thousand fucking suns... but I will still call a believer friend, the believer is not at fault for the brainwashing..... kinda like "love the sinner hate the sin"... I still respect the religous but hate the religion. The human race has become more humane DESPITE religion and all its false gods......

[The Grand Nudger]

Well, everyone is intolerant when it comes to certain things.
Aren't we? Everyone's tolerance is one's own.

Tu quoque, your favorite. I tolerate things all day. That doesn't mean I have to keep my mouth shut about them. Criticism does not equal intolerance.

[Creed of Heresy]

If I may be brutally honest, I tolerate, actually accept religious people. One of my room-mate's is highly devout, a friend of mine is also very devout, and my foster family are all religious in some way or another. I tolerate them if I don't actually accept them.

What I DON'T tolerate are idiots, dumbasses, narrow-minded bigots, hypocrites, liars, "fact" fabricators, ignoramuses, people with an inflated sense of self importance, and anybody else in that spectrum.

So far, DeeTee, you are showing yourself to be all of those things in the extreme. Your "intro" thread was a snarky, insulting, holier-than-thou post with all the feel of sandpaper and this one is as absolutely evident of ignorance, bigotry, and self-delusion as you can possibly get.

I am going to warn you right now. Everyone here can tell you just how fucking intolerant I can get towards those personality types I've listed. Check yourself and open your mind, or I will tear you a new asshole.

yada, yada, yada

Are you serious? You atheists are melodramatic. Name 5 atheists that were "martyred" or at the least received any of said harsh treatments in the past 1500 hundred years and I'll give you 10 Christians.

[Tobie]

You'd have to give at least 1000 to have a proper proportion of atheists to theists.

Yes christians have been martyred, but they died for a cause. Most atheists were killed just for being atheists.

[The Heff]

You atheists are melodramatic.

INTOLERANCE
Just saying...

[Napoléon]

[Paul the Human]

I certainly have no tolerance for such intolerance as has been displayed in the OP, that's for sure. I have no tolerance for willful displays of ingnorance, arrogance, and bogotry. I have no tolerance for intellectual dishonesty, purposeful deflection, and outright lies. I have no tolerance for self-righteous condescension, gross gerneralizations, and unfounded accusations.

You are free to believe what you wish, obviously. The fact that I do not share those beliefs does not make me your enemy. Your intolerance of my lack of belief in your god does. Your inability to consider that you may be mistaken does. Your arrogant posturing and hate filled heart does.

This reminds me of something a Christian I debated on youtube said (before I found better places to debate, haha). They proudly asserted to me that about two thirds of foreign aid that came from the US was from Christians. What they failed to realise is that given the number of Christians in the US those figures are roughly proportional to how much you'd expect if all members of the population (Christians and non-Christians alike) were giving equally.

Basically I agree with what tobie said above.
