Subject: RE: BS: Militant atheism has become a religion p
If I may enter a humorous aside or two at this time...

Musket? You mentioned the phrase "Go and get fucked!" as being a decent riposte or something like that?

Well, the bars all over this nation seem to be filled with lost and frustrated people attempting to do just that, night after night! ;-) Most of them also seem not to succeed at it most of the time. Perhaps this has led to the modern rise in atheism, as these people's faith has been so badly damaged by their most fervent prayers not being answered. ;-D

Meanwhile...

"An argument is a series of logical propositions put forth to make a point and establish that one viewpoint is more credible than another..."

"No, it isn't."

"Yes, it is!"

"I'm sorry, but it most certainly is not."

"It IS!!!"

"No, it isn't!"

"How can you say that?"

"How can I say what?"

"You contradicted what I said!"

"No I didn't."

"YOU DID!!!!!!!!"

(DING!)

"Oh, sorry. Time's up. You have to pay me another 5 pounds if we're going to continue."

"WHAT????????? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE!!!!!!"

"Sorry. I can't argue unless you pay another 5 pounds..."

"I'll be damned if I'll pay you another 5 pounds!"

"dum-de-dum" (humming and looking up at the ceiling)

"Oh, come ON!"

"dum-de-dum"

"Oh...all right! Here's another fiver!" (slams it down on the desk)

"Right then. We were having an argument..."

"No we weren't."

"YES WE WERE!!!!!!"

(and so on)
