Have you suffered a head injury?
I didn’t say you were a troll for saying i am an atheist, but for repeatedly conflating annoyance with disdain, contempt and lack of respect. Again, all of those are accurate if I were to describe you though.
because by merely mentioning I am an atheist, you are trolling me.
BTW, it was your expression of annoyance, made publically, here, that I consider disdain.
I'll let others consider whom is more correct.
Sigh. Consider the sentence structure in the context of the conversation.
By ME mentioning I was an atheist, you then began to troll me and attribute sentiments I never expressed.
I responded to a poster who claimed atheists are concerned or worried at the mention of god as more being annoyed at constantly hearing the same lame arguments forever.
That said, I fully stand by my assertions.
I suppose now you're going to say calling expressions of faith in the Christian God "lame" is not expressing disdain. Hey, if it works for you...
Excellent response.
I don’t mind when people disbelieve various aspects of organized religion - I don’t believe a lot of them literally, either.
But when people don’t realize that there has to be more to all of this than our vaunted ‘science’ tells us - some intelligent Mind and First Cause behind the Universe and our place in it - I think they are missing some important intellectual capacities; and I find them uninteresting.
I have friends who would be best described as agnostic vs atheist and I always tell them that it’s in your best interest that your rights came from a higher order or God because if your belief is man can grant you those rights, man can take them away and that’s what we’re seeing today.
