I missed the demise of Mashmont. Unsurprising given his attitude.

I'm kinda hoping we can get a couple "decent" theists up in here (as in, intelligent, perceptive, non-trolls) to argue counterpoints with us. Maybe with an intellectual vibe like Breezy and Neo. You know... accept evolution, modern science, understands secularism etc.

Here's hopin'

Even though I’m fairly certain he was just practicing his apologetics on us, I will say I always enjoyed getting into it with SteveII. He always gave 100%.

I got an apologist vibe from Steve, too. But the fact we don't outright name him an apologist says something about how much restraint he used in that regard. Definitely a grounded intellectual who knew how to respect logic.

Well, I for one would like to see better representation of atheists with richer understanding of atheism's intellectual history. I mean seriously...I quote more Nietzsche than any atheist here.

I confess that I'm not well read, but I think I contribute in other ways.

Gee, that's really impressive.

If only everyone would just quote other people.

Fuxake what a pompous remark.
