Ron, you tell us off big time for slagging off believers, then, almost in the same breath, you call us paranoid. Nice one.

As for "arguments against atheism", there aren't any. It doesn't matter how many billions of nasty atheists you can conjure up or what you can pin on them, it's completely peripheral to the conversation about whether there's a God or not. Either you're right about God or you're not (in which latter case you would be deluded). As for atheist aggression, 'tis not atheists who insist on peppering the world with churches, synagogues, mosques and what have you, along with all the profligate iconography that goes with 'em. We don't force-feed our captive-audience children with very dodgy one-sided doctrine in "faith schools" (not much live and let live about that!). We don't clutter the airways with our equivalent of Songs Of Praise or stuff The House of Lords with the atheistic equivalents of archbishops. I'd call all that lot pretty aggressive behaviour in the promotion of something that's entirely without evidence. Wouldn't you?
