I dont think he is belittling, he is just frustrated (as we all are) with the "god works in mysterious ways" argument and the "stop bashing religion" argument as we never actually get any defense apart from the above.

No. He started the discussion with "atheists study religion far more than Christians. What does that tell you about Christians?" is immediately belittling them before a debate has even started.

Atheists being frustrated that believers can't convince them why they believe is a bit of a ridiculous notion don't you think?

You are judgemental enough to hate atheists though let's be honest.

Surely there must be something that explains where us nasty atheists go. What church denomination are you aligned to?

Not belittling more a mild prodding


You must have been mildly prodded before?

No. I've gone to a few different churches over many years and apart from 3 occasions of buying a 10 pence candle I've never given money or been manipulated into doing so.

How much time have you spent in these churches?

Are you still operating under the assumption that churches "sell graces" in the street? Or that they charge a subscription to attend mass?

LISTEN TO YOURSELF.

When christians stop charging a fee, i'll take them more seriously. Every Christian should refuse any kind of donation. I've never heard of an atheist charging money to tell people why they don't believe in god.

If you watch God TV in Europe and for some reason I find it fascinating - 95% of their tv time is asking for money

Yes, because God TV = all religious people.

Just as fraudulent car salesmen = ALL car salesmen.

the Relgious programs are the same here in the US. You'd think God would just give them the money so they could spend more time talking about the actual religion, right??

Funny how they claim it's all about love, but they spend soooo much time talking about MONEY!

well, maybe you should get your own house in order then, or God should. Why isn't God sending down lighting bolts on all these blasphemers using his name in vain for profit???

He's supposedly ALMIGHTY right?

The only reason I have a dislike for Atheist is because the majority of them seem to act so self righteous. I understand though that Atheist feel like Christians at self righteous too so suppose it's a mutual hate.

I'm not going to go into who goes where, because it's not my decision to make.

Well this is where you expose the fact that you have done no such research into the bible or religion.

I suppose you're going to ask why he allows hurricanes and tsunamis too, right?
