Those who willfully refuse to learn (or even to read anything that does not fit their preformed ideas) will rarely understand, regardless of their mental capacities. If they want to speak on behalf of others, they will hardly be convincing.

I wonder why they take the trouble to type their statements to Mudcat again and again. Pete may hope to be rewarded in Heaven for his staunchness, but what do those atheists hope, who do not really strive to save anybody else either? It must amount to "onanism", as discussed earlier. At least some of your statements are interesting for readers who do want to learn.

Good fun and entertainment, once a Mudcat stronghold, is not to be found here at all. Even the trolls are lame and impotent. Successful trolling requires some understanding of what is going on; claiming Oxford degrees is pointless if nobody can be expected to even consider believing it.

Has anybody looked at the BHA site, or the "Dawkins foundation", or other atheist organizations? What is your impression of them? Should atheists unite to fight superstition?
