Re: It's All In your Mind
Belief is not bound by logic and is often unreasonable.
Ergo, potentially very dangerous.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts
"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Unreasonable?
Until you provide evidence, yes.

Re: Call It X
After all this time you still continue to misrepresent atheism and atheists. Is it willful or are you truly this ignorant?

Re: Call It X
There is one who knows exactly what you think and how. He knows you better than you know yourself. End of story.
So say you. Obviously all you have are your opinions.
You can plug your ears, laugh, or angrily attack me for expressing my belief on this forum.
My ears and eyes are wide open. Kind of ironic that you claim that I plug my ears.
Furthermore, you have no idea of how ignorant I am.
So you are claiming your are not ignorant about atheism? Therefore you are misrepresenting on purpose?
It would be wise of you, however, to explain why you think I am wrong rather than rant.
I am not sure how you can call two quick sentences a rant. You might want to look the word up.
Let me step you through this so maybe you might understand.
Here is your vcomment.

An agnostic may well call "it" X.
An atheist would only see a blank sheet of paper and would ask us why we are calling nothing anything.
You are insinuating that atheists don't believe in anything. Also, you are insinuating that atheists cannot see what others see as evident. Now this is wrong and actually quite childish and malicious on your part to attempt to put atheists in a bad light.
Atheists do not believe in nothing. We tend to demand evidence. We tend not to have evidenced beliefs.
So are you ignorant about what atheist actually think or are you deliberately misrepresenting?
If you choose to participate, that is
Being Patronizing and passive aggressive is rarely a good choice in an internet forum. Makes the person look like an ass.
