How did you become an atheist?
|
The problem with seeking clarification to that degree on every single matter is most people never clarify what they're talking about. I've developed the habit of trying to understand people regardless of how poorly they express themselves. Maybe obscurity rubbed off on me. I'm sorry, I'll try to be more explicit in the future. I do think sometimes people are being obtuse on purpose, though. Whenever that is happening, it's both dishonest and counter-productive.
Let's be honest here, some of you took the chance to be an asshole about my questions to prove what? That you can't ask somebody about their atheism because they're born with it? Isn't that kind of narrow-minded?

No response to my reply, oh well guess I'm not the most popular one at the ball.

If you don't care enough to notice then nothing!

I get that you're new and still a little bit insecure. I assure you though, I'm not disconsidering you on purpose. In fact I've been essentially talking to you and giving you my attention for quite some posts now. Could you please tell me what statements did you make that you think I didn't address so I can either do that or point you to where I already did do it.
And pardon my earlier foul language. It was not meant to stop the conversation from going forward, rather to give you a hint that you were off the mark on that one.

I'm just a dullard in the way.
