[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's review the "mean" posts. Back on page 8, 16:46 had a good list started for the athiest haters. How many dozens have piled on since then? How many "mean" athiest posts on this thread? A fraction.

Why is somehow ok for the haters to be all-out jerks, but not the athiests?  Hypo-f*cking-critical.

Once more with feeling: not a single person on this thread, before or after PP's list, has criticized atheists for not believing. 100% of the criticism has been about their behavior. In fact, I think it's fair to say that 100% of the criticism had been about YOUR behavior.

Clear now? [/quote]

Also. This entire thread is ABOUT atheists behavior. It is attempting to tie a belief system into a behavioral motivation instead of allowing it to exist solely as a belief system.

This thread isn't even posing a discussion about the logical underpinnings of atheist ideas, it starts with the conjecture that people choose to align themselves with atheist principals in order to be noncomformist.

So being proud of the fact that there aren't a lot of christians in this thread tearing down atheist logic is a disingenuous argument. This isn't about atheist logic, its about someone thinking atheists didn't make a choice based in logic but based on reputation. So most of the ensuing discussion has, yes, been about behavior and how one comports themselves rather than the actual ideas.

As I said in 10:19 though I DO think that when actual atheist ideas have been challenged here and there, it has not been done respectfully at all. [/quote]
