Hi Purpledbear,
I post here for all the reasons mentioned above. And I don't feel wrong about it since I don't spend hours around here posting stuff.
It hasnt been a full year that I'm around, and I can tell you that I have learned a whole lot. Especially in the logical aspects of debate, where there is no better way to learn then through experience I guess.
And as DA said, this kind of conversation is a lot less accessible in the public sphere, particularly here in Quebec where many are ignorant of the whole issue.
I am successfully raising my daughter to understand how vile and disgusting religion is. I am teaching her how delusional, misguided and ignorant people who follow religion are.
I guess I'm delusional, misguided and ignorant. That's probably why I chose to study Math's and physics at university ...
I am showing her along with her friends why it is not necessary to respect the opinions of theist.
Right, right, if someone is theists. Don't respect his opinions .... gotcha.
People say without god there is no purpose. My purpose is to not allow the claws of religion choke the soul from my child.
Since your children don't have a soul technically, I guess your own purpose is devoid of sense.
I come here now on rare occasion. But when I do I come here to better understand my enemy. I do this so I can pass such information on to my daughter so she can do the same to her children or friends.
US vs THEM mentality, I like it.

I know it was harsh and unjustified, probably just as much as when he claimed religious people were ignorant and stupid. And just as unjustified as telling his daughters friend not to respect the opinion of theists.
In the light of all he hd said, I had to bring up the dichotomy of wanting to preserve his childs 'soul'. Which was a very religious comment on it's own.
