Anti theist in the sense that most people here mean it - those crazy nutjobs that attack you with loony tune ideas on creation, literalism etc etc.

Thank you Adrian. I know that it is self refuting. It is part of the joke. But I will exclude myself from being allowed to have an opinion if I also exclude the person I am picking on from having one. I use the same logic with the line "Those who say others should be taken out and shot should be taken out and shot". I know that that puts me on the list, that is the humor. But if that was an option, and I knew that everyone else that was also on that list would also be shot, I would get in line. I make it's logic stand, even though it is an illogical statement at first.
And If I think that, then it is logical that I should not have an opinion. But the same logic stands for TheVoid. So if you respond by falling in the trick, then you (because TheVoid should have been the one to refute) get pulled down too. It seems like a stupid statement, then it seems like a bad joke. Finally, it is possible that it is all a complex and intended literary joke... May be some of the tings I have said here before have been taken as stupid when really the point was missed... Hopefully that makes some sense, I really meant to say the first line, and know what it entails, and stand by it.

Actually this reminds me of my (attempt at a) comically hypocritical Facebook group that I started yesterday. "Against People Who Are Against People. The Spiteful Little Bastards", and part of the description is "I fucking hate people who fucking hate people", join if you wish I've only had 1 taker so far, lol. How about: People who declare others to not be allowed to have opinions should not be allowed to declare others to not be allowed to have opinions, and then the people who state this, also shouldn't either be allowed to have opinions because they're hypocritical bastards too, and I shouldn't either for therefore also being a hypocritical bastard, which if anything it makes my hypocrisy some kind of double hypocrisy which is twice as bad for explicitly calling others hypocrites when I'm clearly also one, and my hipocrisy is perhaps just an extra stage further...perhaps? EvF
it's a vicious circle.
Yeah. Perhaps I should have just said something like that lol

EvF,
I know your true identity! Oh noes I'm gonna stalk you now! Lol I found your group. Rhizo |
