It's counter productive but not disruptive.
You may get used to fr0d0 after a while. Give up any hope of him presenting any evidence or demonstration to how we are ignorant. He will continue to call us ignorant, and he will continue to claim there is evidence, but never has he or will ever back up anything he claims.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

But he's explained it many times here on this forum! He said so himself! You don't mean to say he's....LYING??? I'll be damned.
I can't really work out why a forum would allow someone who contributes nothing and derails topics all the time to carry on posting. But ok, I'll report the posts every time I see it done.

Ace has said this before and had to eat his words.
For the record El... I made a comment about something else... the illogical request for proof, which I followed up upon to conclusion. I didn't fail to address the point of my original comment.
You asked a new question... IMO in order to dismiss my other point via mob mentality, ergo: we don't agree with you so on those grounds can dismiss all logic anyway. That question I refuse to address, and I've tried to explain why several times now.

*sigh*
Why is it illogical to ask for proof of something?

You're right, I don't. Forget it Fr0do, I'm open minded but not to your boring drivel. I can see a large dose of special pleading coming along, and that does nothing for me.

As much of a douche that fr0d0 is I'd never want to see the guy banned. He's a fucking veteran at point dodging, but he isn't exactly what I'd call a troll. At least not like some people who have come on here with the sole intention to troll.
fr0d0's a good guy, underneath that shitty veil of Christianity he seems to want to defend so much.
If you want to ban fr0d0 you may as well ban any Christian who is here, fact is they can't logically defend their faith with anything other than point dodging. It is to be expected really.

I can fully defend my faith logically, and have frequently done so. I can honestly say I've never met a logical atheist. Some come close, but none get there.
Sure - you can pose unanswerable questions that prove nothing... but at least you get to dismiss with baseless accusations of point dodging huh. That must make you feel so good.

You may have defended your faith, but I have never seen it, so the word frequently was not a proper adverb to use. All I've ever seen you do, when talking about beliefs, is insult people...

...like you did right here. And by the definition that you seem to be using for 'logical' in your insult, an atheist cannot meet the criteria because they would no longer be an atheist.
