Meet an atheist ... who believes in God

[okasha]

47. Good grief. Calm down.

A couple points

1. As someone who has spent decades observing, photographing., and reading and writing about nature, I agree wholeheartedly with Scheaffer's observations. Civilization attempts, frequently unsuccessfully, to rehabilitste a species that developed as an apex territorial predator. Being a "complex social" species is irrelevant. We are still apex territorial predators, as our sorry history of personal violence and collective war demonstrates. Wolves and elephants also have complex social structures, and by most human ethical systems, are generally better behaved than we are. You're arguing here for a "special creation" for H. sapiens, even if you attribute it to evolution rather than to a deity.

2 People who "hate atheists" don't usually marry one. Your whole post, including this personal attack, is out of control.
