My arguments are not exhausted Steve Shaw, You have not even read my arguments.

John P, Smokey, any one else on this thread.

Before you defend the sanity of his behavior read what he has said.

>>>Don't worry about 'em, John. In real life I'm the most affable, cheerful, harmonica-playing bloke you could ever wish to meet. I enjoy these threads (being a bit of a pervert I suppose) because they always end with these Christians, their specious arguments totally exhausted, huffing, puffing and stooping to childish insults. Jack insults me now in just every post. I hope Jesus isn't watching him. Tee hee. <<<

Has he been affable or cheerful here? Why is he not showing his affable side here? Why the difference? Why is he being the opposite here?

>>>I enjoy these threads (being a bit of a pervert I suppose<<<

He is admitting to less than sincere motives.

>>because they always end with these Christians, their specious arguments totally exhausted, huffing, puffing and stooping to childish insults.<<<

He, unlike the rest of you has ignored all arguments "specious" or not.

He is acting crazy and I am saying so. That is not childish. It is the truth. I seriously hope that he goes and gets himself some counseling.

>>>Jack insults me now in just every post. I hope Jesus isn't watching him. Tee hee. <<

This has been his tone since post one. Saying things to other people (not me) things like "Your God didn't help you with your spelling." and such in quest to defend what? Logic?

He doesn't use logic or ask reasonable questions as you all have done.

I think the "Tee hee" says it all.

Have you come to this thread to bait and to harass and to rant until others lose patience then to say "tee hee" when they do? Do you think that saying "tee hee" in this context is a sane and reasonable thing to do? Does that reflect your character or position?

If you identify your self as and Atheist he claims to be speaking for you. He also claims that he is only speaking for himself. Then he uses the pronoun "we". When confronted on that, when asked where he gets the authority, he says that he has ranted on lots of "Atheist forums" and no "Atheist" has told him to shut up.

Isn't that loony on the face of it?

First of all, if what he has ranted about atheism is true, that there is no movement, that there is no organization, who would feel that they have the authority to tell him to "shut up" on behalf of atheists? Secondly "Shut up" is his choice of words. "Shut up" is a pretty rude turn of phrase in any circle. So his logic is basically that he can speak generally for the entire group of unorganized unaffiliated Atheists as long as they do not cross the line of rude behavior to tell him to stop. Finally, he is apparently doing this for an audience. On this thread his audience is you. He apparently sees himself as a warrior fighting for Atheism by whatever means is the most fun for him, (hence the "Tee hee") and the bragging about his other "conquests" "I enjoy these threads (being a bit of a pervert I suppose) because they always end with these Christians, their specious arguments totally exhausted, huffing, puffing and stooping to childish insults."

The question is do you enjoy or agree with what he has brought to these threads? He is telling us that you're not telling him to "shut up" means that you agree with him. Atheism is supposed to be a rational point of view. How can it be defended by irrational ranting?

If you want Steve Shaw to continue to wink at you, to claim to speak for you, and to say "Tee hee." Just keep doing what you are doing. By his own statements, he is going to continue to do this until you tell him to shut up.
