what exactly is the point of this forum?

its seems to be a social club & just like all the theist forums
ie they assume righteousness & we have to play debunk & defend 24/7

shouldn't we be the default & they have to prove every claim they make with evidence* ?


*the bible isn't evidence & should not be quoted for or against anything as its utter fiction#
#my evidence for that claim is the utter lack of evidence for it being factual~
~naming some places & people who are real doesn't make the stories real


pretty sure im going to be out of here by month end to be honest & you can flame me if you like for saying ^^^ its how I see it tbh

I find it funny you are quoting Christopher Hitchens in your signature after posting this. Hitchens was a very blunt and blasphemous person.

He said it it would be a horrible thing if the God of Abraham were real and we should all feel lucky he isn't. Called God the dictator of a "Celestial North Korea".

So you object to us not being famous? Is that it?

Try that telling the theists that.
They have all the evidence they need in the form of warm feelings.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Theists and I (others) differ on what is considered evidence. If you don't want to discuss with them maybe this is not for you. You can always choose not to read and/or reply. 

What do you think the point of forum should be? 

4 more days??? OK bye.

You can try staying away from Off Topic if you don’t like social clubs.

Other than that, I understand your sentiment regarding theist argumentation, but what can you do? Where are you going to go get us some theists that have actual evidence? Lol What’s your point?

If you cant stand free speech on a private forum, it really has to be a bitch for you in your daily life too. I don't have an attitude, you do.

GROW UP. I like Catholic Lady, I also like our Muslims Atlass and Mystic, but I am under NO obligation to roll over when they make truth claims about the nature of reality. I think you have some nerve making that post if you know what Christopher Hitchens has said in his books and in videos and interviews.

You are not going to get away with trying to shame anyone here into political correctness. You are being WAY too sensitive first off, and this isn't about rights for any of us. There is NOTHING WRONG one bit about challenging bad logic and naked assertions.

EVEN YOUR SIG QUOTE SAYS THAT.

You need to lose the tude not me.

*ahem*

A quick read of The Rules section will give you the answer to your question right away:

Quote:The Purpose of Atheist Forums

The forums were created for the purpose of providing friendly discussion and debate between atheists and other like-minded individuals, as well as theists. Theists are more than welcome to join and enter into discussions but please bear in mind the nature of this community when entering into a discussion.

We believe in freedom of speech and freedom of expression, which means members can discuss their ideas without fear of censorship or limitation, provided they are not breaking the rules & guidelines below. In the interests of communication, we ask that members do not diverge from definitions of words that are found in established dictionaries, unless a thread's specific purpose is to discuss various alternative definitions.

Atheists can see online how theists basically call for belief in Magic and mind numbing promise of endless torture for sins, which is insane. Theists get a feedback on how insane their belief in some parts.
