Give me a reasonable believer over an uncompromising atheist any day

80. Well you're off to a good start.

Since you were so kind as to open this enlightened conversation with attacks and tin-foil hat conspiracy talk, I can't imagine WHY oh WHY no one talks to you the way you'd like them to.

Have at it though, if the jury system has taught us one thing, it's that it is OK to attack the atheists.

You don't see us pull shit like this. The worst thing we do is point out the negative impact of religion on the world, question beliefs, pointing out flaws in logic and reason, or simply promoting the use of it. The rest of the time we spend defending ourselves from a constant litany of abuse.

Contrast what you posted with this. If I had posted:

"There is a group of vocal christians among and around DU christians who are among the most delusional, hypocritical, abrasive, privileged, cry-babies I've ever had to see in typed font. Openly agenda driven, RW sympathizers, and vacuous bible thumpers, who only come out to piss and moan about Atheists being allowed in "their" sandbox, who wouldn't know their ass from a hole in the ground, let alone a theory from a hypothesis."

I would be hidden by a jury in half a minute, then scolded by the religious AND the atheists of the board who actually have a peer standard of conduct I've seen enforced many times.
