Only to reach the shotgun shells above the cabinets.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

How can you deny Odin, Ilmatar, Ra, Zeus, Venus and Allah?


Exactly! Everyone is an atheist just like me...the only difference is some of you believe in one more god than I do. I love that statement because most religious people are quick to call another religion B.S. but they won't call there own religion B.S. They are all B.S.

This place has been extremely tolerant of xtian toads lately. Not that that is a bad thing. The last one, Zaki, was the worst.

I've noticed a lot of theists coming here and putting words into my mouth. Saying things like "why do you claim there is no god".
Hate that. I just ask them to show where I said that. Tongue

'Forever Happy', has already done that.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

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.

Forever Happy, I can be an atheist by not believing in any supernatural deities. That's all there is to it. I don't have to prove you wrong and I don't care if you want to believe it. If you want to persuade me that I should believe in God, then you need to present your case, and it should involve logic less problematic than your version of 'if Monomami the goddess in charge of seashell formation isn't real, why are there seashells?'.

I expect civil, logical and scientific replies.

this coming from the man whose religious views are "Be pious".

Yeah..commanding people to believe in his version of god expects civil, logical, and scientific replies.

Don't you just hate it when a theist comes in here, makes a load of comments about "their God", then, when you tell them they are, well, blatantly wrong, on the basis of your assumption of xtianty, they do the whole, "Well, I never said who my God is, so..."
How are you gonna do that? Make claims without saying what the hell you are actually making claims about? Purposely being ambigous so you can stay and troll for a little bit longer?
It kind of breaks my hear- mind when people are this purposefully agitating, just because they can do so without immediate reprecussions. People like this, wasting time and therefore resources on trolling (which can be nothing more than a waste of time), are part of the reason my country, America, is such a tainted land to hail from. Lazy, incompetant asses with no real opinion, willing to leech off the ideas of others without expressing their own, just to make a pithy, semi-fit-throwing argument where abuse claims are the norm and irresolution is the grounds.

Thats all. Rant over. He got banned, anyway. JLY seemed to be another one of... those, he got what he deserved.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.
