I don't want to hear one fucking word about this being from SB or anything remotely similar to SB bashing. These are a couple of idiots on the board, but not the board itself.

Anyway, you got Dumb and Dumbers claiming that a Theocracy government for the US would be just fine. Then you got other idiots trying to redefine Atheism. Last of all you got a couple real *smart* ones claiming that the USSR is a proper sampling of Atheists.

Christ, what a bunch of freaking morons. That fucktard Ayel is unbelievable. I wonder how did he thought he could get away with trolling his ideas around here. If he returns, I'll personally see that he gets ripped to pieces.

Geez what a blithering idot. How on Earth can anyone misinterpret atheism? How can you misinterept "I belive there is no God". How can any interpretation of this lead to violence? When will these idots finally realize that unlike religion there is no 'code of practice' for atheists, and as such don't have a theology or an agenda which can be warped into an excuse for violence?

Edit: Clarified what I meant.

ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!
I just read this post.
Seth wrote:That said, a theocracy would be a bad thing, reguardless of the religion running it, Theist or Atheist. And don't start with Atheism not being a religion. It might not be a strictly organized religion, but even it has its creation "myth" and its "god." I would not want a fanatical Christian theocracy running the nation. Legislating morally has a tendancy not to work. One must first change the hearts and the minds of the people before anything like that could work, and that takes time. The public education system is a wonderful vehicle for propaganda and indoctrination. That's essientially its job.

There is, however, nothing wrong with the leadership of the country being religious. Infact, I'd rather that they were. I like having leaders that have atleast some kind of moral compass.
I really hate it when people say things like this. Not only do they apply their mindset of religion onto atheism, forcing a "god" onto it and implying that the big bang theory and evolution is equal to a myth. An the the last paragraph, says imples that atheist have no "moral compass".
:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
I really hate this anti atheist crap that is spouted by idiots who cannot see past their religious viewpoint!!!

PS: Good job arguing with them Aleyska. If you want another age of the Earth thing to throw at Aiyel I recommend using the vostok ice core (and others) which go back to about 40 000 years (well according to my hand out anyway. If you want the details of how they date them pm me.

Ah, the Spacebattles Religious Idiots Parade. Far too many fundy idiots lurk around there. Somebody seriously needs to beat some sense into them. Of course you can't over there thanks for the mods.

I wouldn't mind, but I'm trying my best to not openly flame Es, it's been hard since he's just come back since Xmas and is already pumping up the arsehole factor.

I like to debate civilly because it shows I can keep my cool and not resort to ad hominems which degrade credibility. All this does is work against the others since when (not if) a mod comes in to close the thread, there is nothing to use against me. It will be closed either because Es or BB has been flaming or because the mod disagrees with one side of the argument and can't personally take that attack on his/her faith/rationalisation.

I only flame people who don't comprehend my point after I repeat it multiple times.

You can thank an idiot SB member by the name of Shakkra who is only one of a handful of people to get Perm banned. She was so bad that she attempted to bypass the ban more then 2 dozen times in a single day. So the Admins closed registration and it will probably stay closed untill the 22nd of this month.

Yeah reading that thread Es Arkajae could not accept that HIS definition of atheism was flawed. However I just found that 'moral compass' statement by BigBryan to be really offensive. i hate it when people imply/say that atheist can't have morals because they don't believe in God.

Sir Sirius, Spacebattles has disable user registration because of a troll they had who threatened to keep creating new accounts, it is frustrating since I have wanted to register over there too.

EDIT: Aleyska beat me to it, oh well.

Well, Big Steve and Deathbringer both read over the thread and agreed with me there are a lot of low IQ people posting in the thread, but technically there is nothing against board rules being done. In other words we can continue tearing Es Arkajea and Ayel a new one. :twisted:

I got to about page 4 of that thread and just had to stop because my brain was starting to liquify. Sometimes I'm glad I'm a religion major who excelled in chemistry and physics in HS. Other times I wish I could teach others so I wouldn't sit here going "ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!" Duncan_Idaho is the only one of the religious people who doesn't seem to be a total idiot. Invite him over. He might actually accept.

I read through to pg.8 this afternoon. You're a helluva guy, Alyeska, Es Arkajae is SUCH A DICKHEAD and you handed him his ass on a platter. But can he get it through the scar tissue masquerading for a brain? Noooooo.

You know one fun thing about SB in this regards Mike? Some of these idiots never go away. And while they can be VERY iritating, every time they spout their BS in the threads I can crush them again and again and everyone sees it and everyone sees how pathetic and small these people are.
