Ack - I know no atheists who wear crude atheist tee shirts.

Is this all cute?

Are you saying Intrepid is a Jehovah's Witness? I don't follow all this all the time.

Interesting if so. I am rabid that they get off my property with their promulgation. I hate promulgation, probably as I was missionary recruited in my youth myself, near forcefully, but also that I'm keyed up about property lines and personal space.

On the other hand, back in north north, my favorite bank teller and my favorite 'mexican' restaurant owner were members, and they let me alone in the bank and restaurant; they were good women from my take.


NO. I am NOT a Jehova's Witness. Where did this come from?

I will have to read back to see who the idiot who is spreading this false information is.

It appears that some atheists make judgements based on no facts.

@Intrepid,
might have been me checking in and posting right away.

Aaack. sorry, Intrepid.

It's just that I know you, at least somewhat, and am not all afeared.

I'm not sure where I got it, a previous post, Intrepid.

@ossobuco,
Upon further investigation, it appears to come from Farmerman in the Cotton Socks thread.

@ossobuco,
Hi Osso

I'm assuming you're talking about the picture above. I just thought it would be interesting to post some anti-atheist stuff (balancing it of course with some antitheist stuff) with a view to sensitizing both sides to the depiction of the other.

I assure you they will be condemned to return their Atheist union cards. Judgment based on no facts has always been the privilege of believers, and shall remain so forevermore.

You do little to further any mutual understanding between the two groups.

As I said elsewhere, I was never an "Unknown idiot" and I never "Spread this false information". I said it to YOU in a rebutt. I said that if I was in error (I swore that several years ago you stated a following to CT Russell was your choice. If I was in error, I apologize. Never, however, never was I spreading anything. My rebutt to you could have easily just past to stern if you hadnt gotten all incensed . (MAYBE YOU COULDA JUST SENT ME A SCATHING PM ) so noone wouldof even taken notice. However, here you are denying any association with JWhood .

@hingehead,
This is a challenge. I hate ******* charts, I interpreted them all though school and you ask me to do this again?

Now there is something about an atheism tree and colored lines waiting for approval.

I won't look.

@farmerman,
I like both of you.

Work out how you differ and give the rest of us a clue.

Go on, I dare you...

Basically it's a graphical representation of the schisms of christianity (coloured branches above) and the unschismed straight grey line of atheism (below).

Personally I think it's a tad pointless because it suggests that there is an atheist manifesto that you need to follow to be an atheist. Which is bollocks. I think anti-atheist religionists like to paint atheism as a religion because they know how to fight another religion. A bit like the war on terror invading countries, actually.

The chart isn't pro-atheist, it's anti-religion. (and not anti-theist in the general sense).
