Thread Name: BS: True Test of an Atheist
Subject: RE: BS: True Test of an Atheist
////Pure fantasy. Atheists are the most cheerfully-disorganised people you'll ever meet. We are simply not interested in forming groups, cults or whatever.////

So I'm the only person here who acts like he's infallible, eh? You sound like you speak for everybody. You can tell us with all certainty what harm religion does to every single child out there. You can tell us with complete certainty what every believer really thinks and really wants to do. You can also tell us with utter certainty what is in the hearts of all the "real" atheists. Heck, you even go so far as to say what it is "we" think and how it is that "we" behave. And whenever this is brought to your attention, you so blithely knock it aside and say with yet more utter certainty, "I've been nothing but fair, open-minded, understanding, even downright laissez-faire, if I do say so myself."

In truth, sir, you have been anything but. And thanks for speaking for me as an atheist but, really, I would prefer that from now on you speak only for yourself. Unless, of course, I'm one of those people you don't consider a "true" atheist in which case I can only say thank you. Apparently, stringsinger and smokey have no problem letting you speak for them and that's probably for good reason but it ends there.
