First off, spelling dude, jesus. Not the biggest deal in the world but take some pride in the English language.

Secondly, atheism is a religion like bald is a hair color.

I suggest you do more research on both apologetics and standard misconceptions about religion and atheism before you start defending faith-based beliefs so poorly.
I will not defend religious groups. And I won't defend your equally nutty atheist campaign. You're crazy. I mean that in a very serious and literal way. You get so worked up about atheism and science I'd honestly rather talk to an easy-going religious believer than you. When I say you are religious about your athiesm I mean it like this:

Treated or regarded with a devotion and scrupulousness appropriate to worship

It's not the primary definition, but it's a definition. And the one I wanted. You are a zealot:

A person who is fanatical and uncompromising in pursuit of their religious, political, or other ideals

And finally, you are a hypocrite. You blindly believe in absolutely no possibilty of God (something which Science will NEVER be able to definitively prove). And you justify this belief with science. All this is fine (and I share your views).

But then you deny any respect to those who believe in God because of their ignorant and unwavering views.

Why can't you just accept the fact that science will never prove or disprove a God and hate the religious right for being what they are: poor dumb hicks? Then you wouldnt have to hate them for being ignorant and unwavering when you are ignorant and unwavering in your beliefs (we all are - this is human). You don't know there isn't a god Blonde. We will probably never know.

So I suggest one of 2 things:

Continue to be atheist and hate stupid people for being stupid and making poor arguments. But don't hate them for believing in something.

Or

Don't believe there can't be a god, but hate those who do believe.

It seems a contradiction to me to ardently believe there is no possible god while logically finding fault in those who do believe in a god.


The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
