Gosh. Maybe we should start a new religion so we can control people. That's all it takes, right? A little mysticism?

Sure, a strict religious background will cause some people to rebel.

There are also plenty of atheists who share that basic human need for a tribal identity. I don't think that's necessarily bad either. Celebrate your own choices. It's only bad when you start bullying people of faith as a way of solidifying your own choices.

There is a subset of atheists who need to feel victimized and persecuted and seem to seek it out even where it may not exist (like the recent Christmas thread). In their case, the root of the problem probably lies elsewhere in their lives and and many could probably benefit from help.

Signed, a religious person

Maybe those people are just the loudest? They seem to make up a large part of the DCUM atheist voices, at least

Heh. It was a very simple question! Just asking for clarification on the "f-ing religious asshole" comment. It's a shame, I enjoy an intellectual debate about these sorts of things, but I have to assume PP is a little out of her depth here.

It's spillover from another thread. He is still all fired up about it. Probably the same person who has posted 1000 athiest posts in the past few days.

The irony seems to be utterly lost on them.

I think you're mixing up a couple of posts. There's the one that says this:

"So, what you are saying is I should believe in your God because their might be a God? Or, how about I live a decent life, do no harm to others, treat my family well, etc. and then if there is a God, I think I'd do far better in the afterlife than someone who believes in God and did all kinds of horrible things while they were alive.

I don't need to provide proof God doesn't exist because there is no proof of existence. Your logic makes no sense. I'm not going to waste my life believing in something that may or may not exist."

And then the one with the eye roll. Neither one says anything remotely like "you f'ing religious asshole". Can you direct me to the post you're referring to?

You seem to be the one confused and missing up posters. Carry on.

In what way am I mixing up posters? (I assume you meant "mixing", rather than "missing", please correct me if I'm wrong.) Please give a detailed response, thanks.

In that I am the wrong poster? Is that detailed enough?

The first PP made a statement, and you agreed with it, assuming you're the "+1" poster. I responded to both of you. If either one of you could respond in some cogent way to my question, that would be great. Thanks!

Next time try responding to the original poster! Welcome to DCUM! Glad you're here.

The problem is no one cares enough to convince you. Why would they?

Again, provide some kind of proof. You obviously care or you would not be posting. No one is giving you a hard time about believing in God, so why do you have to give those who do not believe a hard time? Maybe this is your about you and your faith than about others faith?

I don't know how to tell you this, but I am not your servant. I don't have to provide "proof" to you, lol. I don't care whether you believe it or not. The "why would I" is genuine- how do you think it affects anyone else whether you believe or not?

So, you have an issue with Atheists as they don't believe in God. But, you are right in believing in God, but when someone asks you for proof so they can share in your beliefs, you refuse and use lame comments like: "I am not your servant." I am asking you to share your wisdom and knowledge of a world I am not a part of. That has nothing to do with being a servant. A servant is when I ask you to bring me a glass of wine.

I very specifically responded to both of you. As you might be aware, "+1" indicates that you agree with someone's post. Since you apparently agree with the first PP's post, perhaps you could go ahead and respond to my question?

How does one respond "very specifically to both of you". What is the difference between that and a normal response?

It means that I purposefully responded to your "+1" post, rather than just PP's. But you know this, and are clearly stalling at this point.

I'll just go ahead and conclude that you don't have the intellectual wherewithal to respond to my (very simple) question.
