I don't know if it was the Einstein quote that did it (the one about a personal God being a childlike idea. It was in response to waldoz who spoke in fallacies; the last one being that Newton thought atheism was stupid ergo I'm angry at God) or when I said that on my way home I saw Jesus walking on water i.e. the reflection of the sun against the river. I have concluded that those forums really do have glass jaws...

Oh wait, I found it. It was after I was telling waldoz why I couldn't possibly be angry at something I don't believe in:
"Firstly, you haven't given me a sentence's worth of evidence to support this "GOD" thing you so boldly claim exists..."
According to the admin ^ this was my third strike. What losers...

I am thinking that it is more shameful pride that keeps them from understanding the obvious FTR.
After all is said and done; religion gives one "carte blanche" to feel superior, isolated from the "common man and nature" and a penchant for demonising any and all that disagree with the mental "picture" that they have of themselves (erroneous as that may be). Pitiful really.
*le sigh* But like the Taliban and ALL fundies, they really look very foolish and stupid and uneducated.
