I no longer disbelieve in God (see I even used an upper case G) [Trollville]

I've been a smart guy my whole life, and very rational. I've always been one to support my arguments rationally in the face of debate. I've always done everything with furthering rationality in mind. I don't want to be Mr/rational guy any longer. I want to be an idotic asshole like many of you theists. I figure if I accept God, That automatically subtracts 20 points to not only my iq, but gives me the careless f-u attitude theists have towards most people of reason. I really don't want the burden of having to answer to "logic and reason and intelligence". I just want to preach, harangue, blather, and make fun of atheists. Christianity is the answer to my prayers (litterally of course).How did we get here, what is conscience? Hell, "God did it" as a stock answer, its SO easy. Damn this is going to be fun.

There is no distinction between a rational and irrational. Atheists have sort of taken over the tag that they are rational which borders on insanity. Further when we say this , the type of reactions which come out  only strengthens the assertion that they are insane.

There is nothing concretely called rationality, so you have been furthering nothing.

I think you may need visit a shrink.

 Suggest visit a Church and sit in solemn contemplation. The peace of mind will sort out the confusion in the mind. After few sittings, you may analyse your thoughts. If you find yourself lapsing again into delusions , you can repeat this.

Whats more fun is letting the Christians think they are superior, and wathing try to have thier way with me. This is more fun than any other comedy based web-site on the net.

1. Atleast kindly try a spell check before posting

2. Your statement is assumption , my dear ass.

3. But again atheists assume they are rational and there is a self assumed superiority there onwards

4. Infact we have a lot more fun thrashing you guys. Dinesh D'Souza did the other guy in other day.

5. Harris is trying to save face by proposing a new identity for atheists.  Your abilities and services may be suitable for that effort perhaps

Forget arguments. Lets

Forget arguments.

Lets discuss this out 

You are either completely tickled or frustrated trying to deal with theists or both.

This arises because you assume or wish that all theists should think like you think ie 'rationally'. 

I think we should let people be as they are. Dont try to force 'rationality' on people. If you force the same, it comes back in some manner unpalatable back to you or general society.

You both made huge

You both made huge generalizations about theist/athiest. In my eyes your both incorrect as you imply that being athiest or theist must hold similar characteristics amongst themselves wich is, to put it painly, retarded.

Folks, Mr.Smith is poking

Folks,

Mr.Smith is poking fun at a theist named "Lux."  This theist uses the same argument style that Mr. Smith is employing.  If you want to see examples, just look for the threads started by Lux.

By the bye, Mr. Smith, bravo!

Huh... oh, I was waiting for an end to that sentence. It doesn't have a subject, it just ends abruptly.

Yeah, rational should mean something else, like "Has a broken concept of causality," then you could use it, too.

Venkatrajan wrote:

Absolute? No, artificial concepts aren't absolute. It doesn't have to be absolute to distinguish it from irrationality.

That argument would be a lot more convincing if you wore a plaid suit and spinning bow tie.

Not assuming against evidence

At the end of the day, your beliefs remain indefensible.

He's actually trying to dissuade the cartoonish misconceptions your kind are prone to.

Jeremiah, I have not

Jeremiah, I have not laughed so hard at a post... ever... I think...

Ow... my side hurts.

Oh, my fucking god, that is exactly what I needed. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Magilum There is a saying.

Magilum

There is a saying.

"If you hate someone so openly, you actually really like him more than  anyone else"

Come on dear - Why are you so uptight , now arent you clicking at my heels now ? Cool down.

If an apology will help you , let me know

 I think you and me are going to get along just fine.

Also other day I could see your restraint in "Kill em with kindness", a facet of your persona I had not seen before.

Yes. I'm sure that Hitler was secretly a big fan of the Jews.

Man, it's a good thing I spent this whole thread fakeposting, because it would have been a shame to waste the effort of making real arguments with someone who thinks that hating someone means you really like them.

I admit it.  I really get

I admit it.  I really get a kick out of watching somebody get worked up when they think I'm arguing with them, but really, I'm just mirroring their argument, and they're the only one in the whole group who can't see it.

 It's mean.  It's arrogant.  It's pompous.  It's a damn fine way to be entertained. Good work, Jeremiah.
