  1. What he said.

  2.  @ak2wa2or  So you're saying that fundamentalist religions are mutually exclusive. That's what mytmouse57 was saying. You're so smart you're dumb.

  3. IOW, he gave an argument and you gave a talking point.

  4.  @GisHur  : Atheists can pick apart any doctrine or dogma. Men's understanding of the Divine/sublime is imperfect, but that doesn't mean there isn't something greater. Doesn't mean there IS, either. That's why God-deniers are every bit as religious as anybody else. The evidence of our senses, i.e., science, is actually silent on the subject. Existence of God is utterly unfalsifiable, in general, although you can probably poke holes in any individual's specific idea of what God is.

  5.  @Geneeeeeeeeeee  : Explain "Pascal's Wager" to an atheist.

  6.  @yvesgomes  : Not the opposite. Just kind of weak criticism.

  7.  @sherpacool9931  : Millions have been saved, too. Many have received mercy and compassion because some idiot believed in a God of mercy and love. The corrupt Church hierarchy kept knowledge alive through the Dark Ages. It's not black and white. The religion that killed the most people in the 20th Century was Marxism.

  8. Set records for killing. And 99% of those who died because of evil religionists were themselves religious people. It's like saying "penis" or "vagina" is the great evil, because every murderer in history had one or the other.

  10. All atheists, if they're scientists, should be agnostic. Denial of God (of any sort) is as much an act of faith as belief in God. The rational mind can easily poke holes in any religion "made up" by men. That doesn't mean that we're all not nibbling around the edges of something greater, and many of us benefit ourselves and those around us by believing in something bigger, something that wants good things for everybody, with a clear definition (LIFE!) of what "good" means, even though none of us truly understand what that overarching entity or principle is, in its entirety. Maybe atheists are just really arrogant?
