It's a while since I've posted regularly on SNet, beginning to wonder why I bothered returning.
It was a question not a comment

Difference see. Then again what would an intelligent athiest know lol.

Unfortunately I can't comment as to why you bothered returning. If I had returned to a car community after a break I would be participating in car threads and not trying to further the atheistic cause which is obviously ultimately a belief that Cemos will return.

I think we need a damn good war to settle this one. We'll call it something freedom.

First of all what you are saying is.

'Tie your ****' (it also sounds like you're offering to do the deed)

What I think you was trying to say was

'Teri behn ka Lund'

Which means 'your sisters ****'

See, there you go again, trolling to provoke reaction and making assumptions about me.

In answer to your original question, I am as much a lund as you are a yōnī

Would you like a written apology and compensation as well? I never made an assumption about you. Be intelligent and understand that. I asked a question? Rather than answer you threw a hissy wissy. Oh well goes to show etc...

Try harder (or pray to Cemos lol).

I tell you what come onto an Islamic forum called gawaher.com and lube up whilst they tear you a new hole and highlight exactly how weak willed you and your arrogant beliefs are.
You say kufar, perhaps untermensch rings bells with more people? Anyone not following your religion is of lesser status? A lesser person, maybe even worthless? Hmmm that didn't work out well history tells us. I wonder if other pejorative words will get let through without comment? Can't imagine if there was a case of a poster calling someone a ****** that it would be let through. Maybe you could try a bit of faasiq or munafiq?

We atheists are more intelligent than religious people, and I know that for certain because it's how God made us.

Einstein rejected the label atheist. Einstein stated: "I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one. You may call me an agnostic, but I do not share the crusading spirit of the professional atheist whose fervor is mostly due to a painful act of liberation from the fetters of religious indoctrination received in youth. I prefer an attitude of humility corresponding to the weakness of our intellectual understanding of nature and of our own being."

There you go - the jury is out on this one IMO;
unless Einstien is a moron

Some people knocked on my door yesterday and asked if I would become a Jehova's Witness.
I told them I didn't see anything and bade them good day.

yes, this is an early example of the "Jedi" force type view of the universe -- and I have some sympathy with it, but in my view very different from a white haired beardy bloke

So I guess I find humility should be the hallmark of the "educated man".
Not arrogance.

No, i think Gods own terminology is very apt and to the point thank you very much.

Yes, you can compare me/it to **** Hitler and his regime however in all honesty do i expect any better from you? Not really. Are you are better person than me? I don't know. You might do a lot of volunteer work or some other good along those lines so i don't know. I will make opinions on people on how they present themselves to me.

(I also see you made a subtle attempt at pulling at sentiments by using the N word. Poor show fella.)

This is an interesting thread alright.

It seems that atheists love finding a subject that so many appear to agree with because that must bolster them up I suppose.

Firstly, as I have said often enough, and no one can deny it, we are all entitled to our own beliefs as long as they dont cause unpleasant situations for innocent people.

One of the important requirements for a civilised society is a high degree of tolerance. No one can accuse this thread of that!

One has to ask oneself just why a thread like this appears. Why do the atheists feel they have to belittle those who think differently. Why cant they just get on with their own ideas and let those who believe in a God alone. How often do atheists have to put up with such nasty accusations from those who do believe in a God.

It is so easy to just accept that there are those who believe in the opposite and let them get on with it without the sort of behaviour that we see in this thread.

To announce their own intelligence in such a supposedly superior manner with no really believable reasoning certainly takes the biscuit!

Why did he start this thread and why did all the other atheists feel they had to chime in?

Now there was no ongoing discussion about all this and no arguments going on at the time.

One can only surmise that it is done by those who need to bolster up their own beliefs. They give the impression that they are in fact uncertain about their own thoughts when it comes to atheism. They probably are not quite sure whether they are actually right about it all so they feel they have to try to find some kind of basic backing to make them feel a bit better about it. The more who agree with them, the happier they feel of course.

What better than to insult those who are not atheists with lots of support from all the sheep!

You atheists are fully entitled to believe what you want and you don't actually get any significant disturbance over your beliefs.Thats a good demonstration of tolerance isn't it?

You would do better to mind your own business and leave others alone instead of making such a stupid fuss in order to try to get over your own personal uncertainties.

How many atheists have killed believers because they believe?

How many atheists have started wars just to prove their belief is all powerful?

I'm not really bothered what anyone believes, but most of your post is so ironic it hurts. You've basically just done all the things you claim atheists do.
