Sasano, you seem to be under the impression that we're all somehow this sort of "intellectual collective" that must be solemn at all times and cite Nietzche and Hume at every corner. Most of us are not rabidly against religion, though some may be. Some of us would also like to have fun. You also seem to have been calling us hypocritical:
The fact of the matter is, we have every right to insult what we perceive as unjust, unfair, and absurd, just as you've got every right to tell us that our method of saying such things is inappropriate. If you think that what we're saying is incorrect, let us know. But in an open forum, you'll be getting insults and snarky comments thrown around with points that we make. It's inevitable. I don't see how you can expect otherwise.
I do agree that we shouldn't trash talk simply for the heck of it; but us being open/close minded has more to do with how convincing their arguments are rather than our refutation of their arguments, with some petty namecalling. I don't see how namecalling constitutes "close mindedness" on our part.
Sasano said:The point is that there's no moving forward if the religious trash and mock atheist in there social circles and if Atheist trash and mock religious in there social circles.Now unlike them we have a lot of weight behind our reasoning and "beliefs" not to mention were a lot more flexible this is however does not excuse for us to stoop to the level of name calling & petty insults and then accuse them of being close-minded,etc.
Don't you find a bit of futility in debating against religion, but doing so in a morally incorrect way?
