Bad troll, bad troll!

Will you play nicely now? 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Why do the religious have to come to an atheist forum to get educated?

Nope, this one's an atheist on a lark. But in answer to your question, it seems to be 50-50 between saving our immortal souls and expressing righteous, sputtering indignation at the way we treat their sky daddy.
Well played Mr. Trollio, well played. My guess was that you were a middle aged, male atheist. Do I get extra bonus points for your sex and age?

I'm not here to be educated.
(And BTW what you do with the religious people in the privacy of your own home is none of my business)

Atheist, almost (agnostic). Middle aged? Not really. In my mid-twenties. You still get a kudos for your observations though lol

No shit.
Asking why rocks haven't evolved into life in one post and then correctly identifying an ad hominem in the next isn't exactly great poe work.

That's very sad.
