Let me know if you want some more.
You are the same old asshole you always were.  Not that I expected more.
But see these people are atheists so, therefore, somehow you are supposed to agree with them .....Because reasons  Hehe

It's true that no conclusion in favor of religion could be drawn from this. But according to this chart, a non-religious country is more likely to go to war than a religious country.

Everything these asshats don't like leads to bestiality. They seem to be awfully concerned about someone screwing their donkey.

Nope. The argument is that you atheists can justify anything including rape and bestiality. I don't think you can refute Peter Singer's (a professional philosopher, BTW) rationalization of raping disabled people, that's what atheism offers you : arbitrary morality. Enjoy.

The goal isn't to make you accept pro-life—its to question your views on choice. Last I checked frowns don't prevent developmental defects, do they?

Should the results in any way infringe upon a woman's body and choices?

I mean, that's her call. If she is going to bring the baby to term and asked for my advice on HER decision, I would advise that teratogens are a bad choice.

If she didn't ask my advice would I ever force my concerns about teratogens upon her? No.

No atheists cannot justify anything. Peter Singer is an idiot whose philosophy degree isn't worth the paper it's printed on. Atheism neither leads to arbitrary morality or the ability to rationalize anything. Enjoy spewing empty apologist bravado and justifying us taking you even less seriously than already did.

Fucking moron Hehe

"Frowning upon" is a colloquialism which roughly means "does not condone." C'mon, man.

I think you are making good arguments. I dig your attempts to make me question things in that regard. No issue at all there.

The news is constantly filled with religious fundamentalists and religious leaders doing immoral things such as raping and killing children.

When was the last time you saw a headline that read, Man behaves immorally because of atheism?
