What's that like? Feels too angry for Girly. I find anger to be counterproductive and self-destructive to me.

I'm an anti-theist, not just an atheist, so needless to say I do feel a responsibility to try and do away with bullshit, this doesn't mean I have to be nice to everyone that comes along.
THere are ways not to go about evangelizing the feeble minded and superstitious.
I'm aware, but I don't have the patience to pander to everyone, especially when trolls are a dime-a-dozen.
Sorry Girly, didn't see your post.

I wouldn't call it angry, I mean it's angry sometimes, but not an anger that pervades your life (unless you let it). I see no usefulness whatsoever in any kind of theist faith (deism is fine by me on most accounts), and I wish to see them gone. Not in a violent manner, because that's one of the very things I detest, but through discourse and if it's possible in the future then through complete and undeniable scientific refutation.

That is an excellent point. I don't underestimate it, I fear it.

I'm with you all the way up to your last point. Girly couldn't give less of a shit whether someone wants to cede their responsibility of making their own metaphysics or not.

I have been on many religious forums, but this is the first time I have been so insulted, and right now I am getting drunk and having a fucking good cry.
You serious, bro? :0
No. You're just fucking with us. You can't really be this upset... can you?

Well shit.
It's worth remembering that we're all here, through choice, for fun.
If posting on this forum does not give you pleasure, or if it makes you sad, then don't.
Imagine this place as like a titty bar. If you don't like titties there is a pool bar up the street.
But there is no point in telling the girls to cover up, and I'm afraid I can't muster any sympathy for the tears you've shee. This is the Internet. Haters gonna hate, flamers gonna flame, trolls gonna troll. Nobody is making you be here. Complaining about it is a lot like going to a pub, getting shitfaced, then blaming the barman for serving you.

Well, shit.
Looks like I missed him. Oh well.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
