Trout is a theist using a theistic construct, "priests", to criticise atheism. It boils down to "atheism is just as bad as theism" - hardly a compelling argument (my sig is a parody of this just-as-bad-as-us style of theistic rhetoric). You, conversely, are not using an atheist construct to criticise theists when you say 'foreskin fascinated, Semite tribal deity'.
(That said I enjoy using the phrase "fundy atheist" because it is both amusing and telling for certain types of atheists. And I'm the first to scream "North Korea" when atheists start on about how the world would be a better place without religion.) _________________ Theists wank too. |

Mwuhuhu. Hope you do.

No. I think you look silly in women's clothing.

A very insightful, semantic analysis Mr. Roma. I can tell you are a cunning linguist.

I'm simply of the mind that the world would be a better place with a LOT less people. It would be gravy if I got to pick which ones were voted off the planet... _________________ ...Oozing my brain chemicals in your general direction...

I'm a little disappointed that Friday night is here and we are only at ~4045 views and ~485 posts in this thread.

It's still before 5 on the West Coast. Give it time. Try clicking the Slashdot link at the bottom of the page to submit it to them. Crash the server with this thread. _________________ Kimberly (HSBUH) aka

Perhaps if we had some attractive, atheist women baring their breasts in this thread...
...it would:
1. Help me acheive my goals of getting this thread on the atheistforums.com top ten list.
2. Get the 'Gerbil' closer to deconversion. (he's never seen a naked women's breasts)
3. Help Trout observe a different, kinder, gentler 'working model of godless thought enfleshed', that he mentions in his OP.
4. Give these West Coast atheist babes somethin' to do tonight instead of watching the Olympics opening ceremonies.

maybe you should scream NORWAY instead..
atheism is not synonymous with a totalitarian regime.

Neither is a lack of theism synonymous with a more rational country and a better standard of living. I'd rather live in prominently Christian South Korea than dominantly atheist North Korea. _________________ Theists wank too. |

@Moloth: that cartoon is very funny and scary at the same time.
Exactly the kind of thing one might expect GWB to say in earnest. (apart from the fact he pobably thinks Norway is part of California)
After he all,he once referred to U.N.I.C.E. as "a brave little country" and no one in America noticed. :0)
WOW! Really CR?
No,not really,I made that up. |
