No, I am not afraid of christians but I recognize the threat christianity poses to mankind's future, as basing actions on the ancient ignorance of people that didn't know where the sun went at night is the most dangerous form of ignorance.
I am pissed that two very large deity believing groups are the cause of most of the strife, hate, killings, and wars today, creating a future that will make today's problems global problems look like a Sunday picnic. Or have you forgotten that George Bush said that he invaded Iraq because "god told him to"
If some unknown microbe (disease) or natural catastrophic event (meteor or Yellowstone caldera) doesn't destroy most life on the planet and civilization first, you silly deity believers squabbling over your imaginary gods will.
And that pisses me off, because it is just so stupid. Rise above the stupid posturing of "my daddy can whip your daddy" insanity.

But we know the tenants of christian are, irrational hate drive by willful ignorance......
And again, I can't help but note your only response to views you disagree with is to throw lame and nonsensical insults. What a pathetic picture you paint of christianity.
Hell is a town in Michigan, other than that it is just part of your pathetic fairy tale.
Not to mention the Pascal's Wager (you'll burn in hell threats) is in fact proof that you conceded the argument for the existence of your god, and have turned to irrational nonsense to bolster your fantasy. Desperate little christian striking out in anger... what a sad little man.
Haha, no. I am an atheist, yet I hold neither one of those beliefs. Cut the B.S., stick to the facts.
Some may believe some of those things to be true, but they are not tenets of atheism. Atheism is simply the state of not being a theist. It requires no specific beliefs about or feelings towards any god. It is defined by the lack of a belief.

Right. Though, I don't think logic has much to do with it. Some people just don't know what they're talking about. Rather than talking about atheism in relation to what atheism actually is, some people want to assign atheism an alternate definition in order to attack it on their terms.
It's nothing but a straw man. It's a refusal to accept reality on reality's terms.

OKAY...Atheists thrive by being a parasite on Christianity, and mostly target the shortcomings of individuals. Regardless of any evidence you lead them to, you can't make an atheist think. Atheists are so opposed to anything linked to God that their hatred gets in the way of common sense. All lies begin with self-deceit. Satan is self-deceived and the father of all lies, therefore atheists being of their father the devil have the nearest alliance to Satan. An awful state of degenerates, atheists partake of the same principles and propensities which characterize the very nature and essence of their father the devil.The reason for an atheists resistance and rage is because God's word is truth, and the truth terrifies them. An atheist's only hope is that there is no afterlife, their greatest fear is that there is. When confronted with any debate an atheist is only able to issue negative commentary because, once again, the hatred of an atheist gets in the way of any common sense. Because the sole purpose of an atheist's pathetic existence revolves around attacking the validity of the Holy Bible, these mindless mockers will never go away or shut up. As we can see, it has become apparent that if Satan cannot get at you any other way, he will continue to use his Mindless Spawn "extraordinaire" to continue to rage and foolishly waste our time.

More hate, insults, and ignorance.
I was simply pointing out to you what the word "atheist" actually means. Most people would say something like "thanks for helping me better understand what that word I keep using really means" but, hey, you do you.

Any intelligently thought out, logically applicable, or even original response?

Oh give me a break, there is nothing that I want from christianity, except for the insanity of believing in fairy tales to take it's place in the fiction section. Christianity is a parasite on society as a whole, and extremely detrimental to mankind's future, if you want to talk about parasites......

I don't think an original thought has crossed that boys mind in a long time.... He never posts his thoughts... just walls of text borrowed from others, and silly pictures as rebuttal for points he cannot articulate a rational response to, and even then it will be a selection from a very limited library of about 5 or 6.

Just for the sake of curiosity, how does being a Christian cause the strife, hate, killings and warfare you mention? Is it because we follow a moral code that was established by our God? Is our code too high for you? Is it because we are against the murder of unborn babies? Is it because our moral standards call for humans to act like human beings in their culture rather than animals? Is it because we believe that homosexuality and same sex marriages are an abomination before God as the Bible says? Is it because we want our children raised with upright moral standards and education based on truth of history rather than some made up creed of the last few years? The religious war you seem to refer to is from Islam, not us, but we will fight against it and, further, if it is pushed here to extremes, you, like everyone else will fight against it. If you say you won't fight it, I will call that BS and you are deliberately trying to disagree solely for the sake of argument.
XD, your unbelief and hatred of anyone religious is seriously taking its toll on you. You have become rabid to the point that you seem to have the necessity to shout everyone down who doesn't believe as you and conform to your notions. It also seems that you consider yourself superior to all others in your thinking and are determined to bring about their change to your liking. No one else is to have a contrary opinion. Now that old son is hubris to the nth degree. Such arrogance might cause your head to explode!
I really hate to break it to you but you will never be able to take away our belief.
