The fact is that it is the theists who are working overtime trying to paint atheists in the only manner they know how: with an ideological brush. It is the only tool in their toolbox, and it's not all that sharp.

You should know by now that atheists live to make stuff up to support their beliefs.

Click on the link yet? I didn't think so.

I read the article and it did a very good job of telling me everything atheism isn't. Other than that it told me nothing at all.

The common mistake of both is to automatically associate religion with God.

However, they both have their beliefs.

One believes in a God.
The other believes there is no God.

But one has......BINGO Night!!!

True, but one side just refuses to believe it.

Great! You and your crew keep telling us what your not, what atheism isn't, so what is it? This is starting to read like one of those to good to be true classified ads. They go to great lengths telling you everything you won't have to do, but never really tell you what you will be doing. Usually ends up to be some type of sales job, which is what you're doing here. Selling! The harder you try to spin the tale, the more you show what hardcore believers you are in your idealogy.

WTF the biggest troll on ET is now playing games about his own work.

Do you say you have no belief or
Do you say there is no God.

At any rate, one thing I know for sure, atheists don't tithe every week. bunch of cheap mofo's.

We Have A Responsibility…as unbelievers, we have a responsibility to the future of our species to do whatever we can to disseminate the science and eliminate the myth.
