Time for you to realize that the world does not revolve abouit what you think 'should' be. Whatever you define everyone as religious is frankly irrelevant to what acctualy is.
I won't even pretend to understand why you had to stick the other paragraph in there (aside from showing that you don't understand what natural means).
So we are back again were we started and I'll and it how it started.
It's this fabulous thing which appears to be a great mystery to you: plain English.
Atheism is not a religious choice.
Stop the redefining, you even contradict your definition of atheism in the previvous post. Making thw words doubleplusbold does not make your definitions any more absolute.
According to the laws of aerodynamics, the bumblebee should not be able to fly. Yet fly it manifestly does, albeit in a stately fashion. So much for the laws of aerodynamics.
Much the same applies to Wikipedia, the online encyclopaedia written, edited and maintained by its readers.
Wikipedia:
A long-held myth of the bumblebee was that, in terms of theoretical aerodynamics, it did not have the capacity (in terms of wing size or beat per second) to achieve flight with the degree of wing loading necessary. This myth became popular after an aerodynamicist in the 1930's stated that a bumblebee was not capable of flight. The statement was based upon an assumption that the bee's wing could be treated as a static aerofoil. However, in reality the bumblebee's flight is characterized by an oscillating wing that shares more characteristics with a helicopter than an aeroplane.
Yes, my argument was that his "argument" does not realy say anything as it can be used either way, I could have said that, but this is usualy more effective.
I tend to speak up when I feel I have to say something, whatever it is of any worth (if there is such a thing) is of secondary importance. If it's not fun at some level I let it be soon.
So what is the difference between a pretend religious leader calling for violence against a group of people and an atheist calling for violence against a group of people?
He does not do it in the name of religion (he has none).

I can, but that does not stop my brain from playing go when I'm not thinking...
Disbelief? Or do you have problems with undertanding the "or" part?

Bad spelling is an integral part of a good flamewar... yeah, that's it...

The first dupe?
Theism == Belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in a personal God as creator and ruler of the world.
So theism is the belief, not the god or gods. I definitly lack such a belief, but I don't see how the lack of belief makes it a religion.
Well Infocom games and Rogue-likes have a common ancestor: Adventure.
It may however make sense to remove a link. Oh, and because that is the "wiki way".

If you have something to say about leonbrooks "argument" say it to him. Anyway, I'm not hetre to entertain you.
I suspect that once you get that distinction straight in your head, you'll be right.

So you like playing the "redefinition game"?
So you say that goverment should use force for the reasons you deam as correct, but not for the reasons you deam as incorrect?
