@reasoning logic,
Well, I just looked at it again, and I suppose I am OK with respect to that one. However, there may be others. In general the main contributors to this thread have repeatedly expressed the view that they want a thread for mutual exchanges among atheists without challenges, argument or dissent from skeptics. It is a somewhat odd requirement for A2K, but it is their wish, and I have no need to directly subvert it, though I do comment from time to time. As you can see, it doesn't take much to arouse complaints.

@georgeob1,
Is this not littlek's thread and have you not complied to her askings? Even if you did make a mistake where is it mine or anyone's place to tell you other wise?

@georgeob1,
How much actual atheist discussion do you see among the atheists on this thread?

@Intrepid,
I have seen some discussion of common perceptions among them about how other perceive them and how to deal with it, as well as personal constructs for ethics and morality. That's actual enough.

You mean the question I asked?

@ossobuco,
I will respond immediately to say that I am uncomfortable with words like honey and sweetie, or sweets - I'm not from the south of the US. I use those sardonically if I do a big percent of the time, but also, confusingly, meant well.

@Intrepid,
You may have a good question that I may need to ponder! I have another question that goes like this, " If we decided to become psychopaths what would we be able to accomplish?

Could we team up with multiple user names and down vote all those that we disagree with? Keep in mind that this is only a realistical question I mean hypothetical!

@ossobuco,
Here is the question again! I'm not sure what the difference is between "atheists do not believe in any gods," and "atheism is not a belief, is is a lack of believing..."

Maybe, you can clarify that for me?

@reasoning logic,
I think you are misquoting CI.
"That's because atheism is the belief there are no gods."


A lot of us wouldn't put it that way.

@georgeob1,
This isn't meant to be an exclusively atheist thread. I had hoped that it would be constructive rather than divisive discussion*.

Several posters who are theists have come with interesting, constructive things to say. Some of you who I feel are ridiculously obnoxious have at times had interesting things to say. An very few of you have been thoroughly obnoxious without anything interesting and constructive to say. It is that last group of people I would wish away if I could.

*Note the word discussion which in my mind does not equate with debate.

@littlek,
All you have to do is ask me to leave if that is what your wish and I will!

@reasoning logic,
To be honest, I am usually so disgusted when I do venture in here that I haven't been tracking what you have to say.

@reasoning logic,
That is simple.

But the question promulgates that some athiests attest loudly there are no gods.
Most of us simply do not believe.

@ossobuco,
1 Do you believe that there are no gods? 2 Do you know that there are no gods?

Can you answer these two questions with a yes or a no?
