No Stilly,

That is not what this thread is about. This thread is about a few bickering mudcatters continuing their personal bickering on yet another thread.

The topic stopped being "Militant Atheism" about that four threads ago. . .

Jack,
   I saw that it was a quote....nonetheless, when different points of view are expressed, even not the ones that 'follow set ideologies', we as writers need that input in addressing topics that have national, and even international interest. To quash such discussions do not serve us musicians, AT ALL...
Stringsinger and I have had some differences in the past, but at least, they were/are honest differences...AND the main thing is, it causes us to think..beyond the typical 'talking point' crap that is being fed to us from the political parties, who meter and control the whole of the national dialogue!!!

I started this thread because there is a couple of religious people here who subtly trash non-believers. The thread that started this series was one that implied that so-called "militant atheism" is a religion. This is nonsense.

I agree wholeheartedly with what Stilly River Sage has to say.


"Is it fair to say that you start threads like this to trash non-believers. Or would you rather just admit that your statement is in error?"

This is pure sophistry. It's an attempt to belittle my defense against religious bullying and bigotry by twisting words.

"Are you aware that the constitution only protects people from government interference in their speech? It would be a good thing for you to keep in mind."

The Constitution protects people from unwarranted religious intrusion into their lives by prohibiting it as a litmus test for public office.



"The vitriol on this forum about religion on this forum comes overwhelmingly from a few people who are not religious and there is no lack of uncivilized talk on each and all of the topics you mentioned."

This is not true. There's plenty of religious bullying and vitriol to go around.

"On the topic of religion I don't see much civilized discussion on your part. You tend to lecture, "discussion" implies balanced communication."

On the contrary, the authoritarian pronouncements are not coming from me. I see no balanced communication coming on this topic with such nonsense as "militant atheism is a religion". That's not balanced, that's absurd.

>>I still maintain that there is a large percentage of religious people who take it upon themselves to deride or degrade non-belief because of their indoctrination.<<

"No one has argued that. Though I might ask you to put some numbers behind "large percentage."

The bulk of religious folk overwhelmingly denigrate non-believers and many of them are in government. They do so by implication if not violent reactions of a physical nature. The numbers are staggering, beyond an ability to tally them.

The prejudice against same-sex marriage is a case in point. Here's an article that defines the role of religion today on the subject of marriage.

Christian hypocrisy

"It has been argued that there are a few very vocal non-believers who take it upon themselves to deride or degrade belief because of their indoctrination or lack of it."

That percentage compared to those who deride non-belief is small. I would say that
belief systems need to be challenged if they defy logic just as Democratic Party members can challenge Republican Party members on the basis of their respective ideologies.

Name-calling such as referring to "militant atheism" is an attempt to belittle non-belief.

This is what the thread is about:

One of the reasons that atheism has become strident in recent times is that today there are people who are religious bullies that show no tolerance for an atheist point of view. The evidence for this is the insulting idea that atheism or what I would prefer to call it, non-belief or FreeThought is uniform and somehow has a bible or doctrine. This attitude has no respect for non-belief and as a result deserves no respect in turn for those ideas that promulgate such bigoted opinions.


We can get along if an honest respect is shown for differing points of view without an attempt to mind-rape non-believers into forcing them into some kind of religion which not only doesn't make sense but insults their intelligence.

Ideas, religious or political need to be expressed in a rational non-rage-aholic way and condemnations by inflammatory threads to attack non-believers serves to shut down legitimate discourse.

Mudcat is not a religious or atheistic forum but a genuine attempt to share honest ideas even if we all don't agree.

Thanks, Joe, for offering a forum for honest opinions in an environment today where people in power attempt to suppress ideas that they don't like.

Use your phone, use the next door neighbor's connection, go to the library, do what you can to connect, Gust, I'm sure you've figured out the angles. There were miles of posts all from you on that IP address. So get a grip. You got bonked once and the message was clear. It's as easy to block several as one, but the point is, we shouldn't have to. Behave yourself. Stop stalking people. It's easier just to delete you, when it comes down to it.

The point of this thread has probably long since been lost, so if it gets too gnarly it'll probably get closed. I can't say by who, many people are tired of the back-biting that goes on in these long BS threads.

The ghost of Goofus past....

I suppose you would have to be a ghost in order to carry out magic, such as curing gayness. (One of his less salubrious claims.)

On that bombshell, and keeping on track of the thread, (superstition verses rationality,) I notice one of the catholic priests that has just been promoted to Cardinal, (a Spanish bloke,) has just a given a speech saying homosexuality is a disease and we should look for a cure.

Nice.

Reminds me of a the one about a bloke who got brave in the pub and went up to a lady and said "I fancy you." She said, "You are wasting your time, I'm a lesbian." Oh, he said, what does that mean? (As opposed to "What part of lesbia do you come from?") "Look," she said. "See that lass over there? I'd love to go over and suck on her breasts." "Oh Jesus!" He said. "I reckon I'm a lesbian too!"

The moral being, there is no disease, just perspective.....

Oh Goodie!! A PERFECT EXAMPLE of what I just previously posted, which was:

From: GUEST,Guest from Sanity
Date: 20 Jan 14 - 12:33 PM

"Let me re-phrase...Politics is the tactic of deceiving people, through propaganda, to build a consensus by getting people to abandon their common sense..."

Jack, your instincts and common sense was absolutely correct!
It wasn't me.....Now note the feeling you get when this question is answered, versus the feeling of having to abandon your common sense...
(sometimes a well placed question can change a life)...and remember atheism does not believe in God nor his laws, like lying etc etc...

Stilly and Don say it was because they checked my IP address..therefore it was me......

Now here's the question....
How could it have been my IP address when my IP address was blocked??
She said she checked..Don said, "I think Stilly checked the IP number, Jack. The style is not that different."

Whatever you detected, when you said "....but the writing style is way different" was your common sense. Their Atheist/'so-called liberal' Propaganda made it appear different, appealing to those with like ideologies...

Truth, and this can be verified by a truly objective 'moderator'...and if found to be true, SRS should be canned.....
That IP address has never ever been used by me, in 9196 posts, and she blocked my computer.


'Militant Atheism' is Godless propaganda"...No laws of 'love' or 'honesty'.....deceiving those who they can...See how it works?
..and the difference between left and right wings....is all about MONEY...how it is handled, and who controls it....as long as 'WE, THE PEOPLE' are passive, obedient consumers!..they will have NOTHING to do with freedom and/or independent thinkers...matter of fact, they'd like to exterminate us all!!

Happy Realizations!

Thanks for the feedback, but I will stand by what I said. The rules Max wrote are clear enough. I'm going with the thought that he meant what he said when writing them and if he felt otherwise now he would have changed the rules.


There are all kinds of reasons why he may not be cracking down on each instance, the most likely reason that he does not have the time to waste baby sitting the rule breakers.

Ian, GfS did NOT express hatred for homosexuals, that is only YOUR take on it. Sounds like the hatred is in your head.

GfS happens to have had some of the most insightful, interesting, witty, amusing and entertaining posts on Mudcat.

It certainly appears to me, that because GfS has also accurately pointed out some of the most egregious examples of hypocrisy in our political divide, Don Firth being the most glaring example, that Don encouraged Stilly River Sage to boot him off, whether temporarily or not, time will tell, because GfS accurately called Don's opinionated hypocrisy for what is is, and Don just couldn't handle it!

With that in mind, instead of making Mudcat a fair place for different perspectives and exchange of varying ideas, Stilly River Sage, along with the nonsense of the lunatic fringe of the left, is turning Mudcat into a place that is 'safe for hypocrisy'.

A protest is in order!

If there were the slightest smidgeon of truth in that statement, Max would have already dealt with it.

Ian Mather,

The rules are very very very simple and very very very easy to understand and abide by if you so choose.

You are free to inform those people that you feel they are not living up to your interpretation of the rules. You are not free to be unkind, impolite, argumentative, snooty, or either FOR or AGAINST that of-what-we-do-not-speak.

I have no doubt that in the rough and tumble of spirited debate that most of us, including those that you have called names, do violate those rules. Only one person brags when he does it. Only one person does it several times a day almost every day.

I don't care to remind them of the rules. They are not my concern. You are my concern, Ian Mather, for reasons which have been explained many times.

I'm really happy to have you dismiss me with contempt or otherwise, if it means you stop calling me names and that you try to become a respectful member of this forum.

But lets be clear, I'm not defending anything that GfS or any of the people you attack say. I am merely pointing out that the rules say that they are free to do as they wish within the rules as are you. They break the rules much less than you and your rule breaking is often aimed at me.

That's the problem with people who believe their own press.....DELUSION!

....now, maybe we can get back to the main topic....Don uses this same tactic over and over again....he wants all the threads to end up a forum in which he gets everyone to be talking about him....when no one is even remotely interested, he'll kick it off be talking about himself.
It happens every time he gets backed into a corner, and can't back up his frothing rants!

OK..enough about Don....and his past reckless 'sexploits'....

So sue me...I could always use the money!
Oh, and don't forget to include YOUR posts....including the one that you allege me to be a pedophile...AND the others from the past, that shows that I, for one, wasn't making anything up...repeating back to you your history as told to us by you!!

BTW, frivolous lawsuits can be more expensive to the person filing them, than the original suit...some states even have criminal charges for filing them!

...and don't think I'm kidding!

"I reported the website for not deleting incitement to hatred, an offence where Akenaton lives"

I'm afraid I must tell you Ian, that you have committed the cardinal sin. You have broken the main rule in the book, a rule which when broken on a couple of previous occasions, resulted in the miscreants being "disappeared"....never to be heard of again.
Alas poor Shambles! I knew him well.

The rule you have broke is as follows.
"Being for or against that of what we do not speak"

I would tell you what "that of what we do not speak" is,....but I dare not, lest I suffer the same fate which awaits YOU. :0(

No, Jack. I've been through the drill and know what's involved. Trying to claim he was "only joking" is extremely lame, and in no way constitutes a defense.

Goofus, I NEVER said any of the things you claim I said.

I'm copying and pasting your posts about me to show to my attorney.

Keep giggling. You might just be giggling on the other side of you face quite soon.

Are you are saying that you reported Max to the Scottish authorities?

>>>I haven't read the rules. I have no intention of reading the rules. If Max wants half a debate in these threads that would be his affair,<<<

That works very well for me as it allows me to rub your nose in your own pig headedness and disrespect for this forum. And anyone who wants to see if what you are doing is right, they can read the rules of the forum. As I said, point out your antisocial behavior on this forum is more fun than wallowing in your mud.


>>> but from where I am sitting, challenging bigotry, homophobia, misogyny and crass stupidity <<<   


You are doing none of those things. You are childishly calling people names. How do you think you are challenging bigotry by perpetuating stereotypes by using terms like "Paki" and "Ginger?"
I have not seen the people you call "bigots" use these terms to refer to people, only you. But there is no rule against being a weekminded hypocrite who hides behind so-called humor, which a lot of bigots do. So if I thought that was what you are doing I probably wouldn't bother to point it out other than to enjoy the irony of you calling people "bigot."

I have enough to enjoy in pointing out every day that you are again being an obnoxious stubborn rule breaker and then watching you use playground psychology to try to get me to stop. By all means don't read the rules and abide by them if that is the kind of man you are Ian Mather.


>>is not on his shit list just yet. I hope it never is, but if it ever is, hopefully hatred will be barred at the same time.<<<

I don't think its a "shit list" Ian. I don't think he wants to be your daddy. I think he posted those rules expecting most of us to be grown ups and respect them. I would like for you to be a grown up and respect the posted rules. But I don't think that you will.

>>>Pissing on the carpet is one thing, but the likes of Goofus and the worm drop the odd shit on it for good measure. <<<

Look at that you literally dropped a "shit" on this thread.

And biting at the other puppies and worse, not learning, will get you sent to the pound.

Tell us, oh Inflated One, what is the lie?
I'm only repeating what you bragged about, when you thought you were impressing people.
YOU'RE the one who implied I was a pedophile!!..and you got blasted back with your own medicine...except mine was based on what you said to be true...and the added element of common sense!

Stringsinger: "There is the problem that in most cases, religious beliefs tend not to be rational and this is borne out by the role of religion in politics, today and the fanaticism of those in the military industrial complex...."

I agree!....Just as politics has replaced statesmanship, religion has tried to replace any true understanding of the Spiritual.....and the war against the Spiritual and the war against true statesmen has been running rampant amongst those who are either too lazy or too stupid to find out and know the difference!..and as a result the whole of the body politic, and/or the genuine belief is God suffer. Politics is its own worse enemy, and 'religions' do more to make banal any depth of real cause and effect, of the unseen powers that otherwise would have profound meaning.

I also agree with Stringsinger, that a salient discussion would be in order....but due to the tactics of the 'less than open-minded' we're stuck with the puerile antics of 'believers' of either, that is corrupt political policies AND impotent 'religious' dogma!! Even those tactics are chosen for those to disengage and avoid getting to the bottom of the motives and the 'powers-that-be' behind the curtain....and these silly fucks just go right along with it. It is a cancer on the brotherhood of mankind and the body politic, alike!!

>>>I presume that anyone and everyone here with an I.Q. over that of the average toenail fungus knows that Guest from InSanity is lying through his teeth about me. NONE of what he has written about me is true!

He should be aware that he is guilty of libel, by putting into print (and that includes in internet forums and blogs) defaming and untrue statements about another person. And that that person can then SUE them for libel and defamation of character.<<<

I have not seen I.Q. data for toenail fungi so I can't speak to that. But I believe you next to zero cause for a libel suit. You'd have to prove that he wasn't joking, he said it knowingly and deliberately and that he is of sound mind. You may be able to prove one or two of those things about GfS, but not all three.

I think that the likelihood of you scaring him with hints of libel is even more remote.
