    Sadly there is no need for them to do that when all they have to do is leave it to people like you to disgrace and discredit Chrsitianity!

    Anti atheism is doing so much damage to Christianity that it is in reality anti Christianity – David Manley

    It takes in reality only one to make a quarrel. It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favour of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion. - William Ralph Inge.

    Why so blind to what causes the backlash against christianity?

    ALL the other religions and atheists live in peace and are ONLY attacked by BAD christians which causes all GOOD christians to despair at the damage they do!

    Up until about 40 years back Christianity was thriving and there was no conflict with others but in just those few short years the modern christians have become intolerant, hate filled, bigoted and persecuting resulting in a growing backlash against christianity and causing christianity to loose over ten percent in less than a decade with the loss accelerating!

    The self destruction of Christianity is underway and the only thing that can stop it is to abandon the terrible human emotions, seek to rediscover the idea of a loving god and act like it!

    Posts like yours that drive people further away from God are driving you towards hell.

    So who are you working for the devil or the antichrist because it sure ain't the loving god!

    although i do not have a specific religious belief because there is simply NO WAY of knowing, i believe they do not. Christians more often just look and sound stupid because they do not use real logic. christianity has taught ignorance and intolerance which has caused genocide for over and millenium. Atheism is a much more likely idea than christianity.

    I would think it was trolls, but i have talked to hardcore christians in real life, and it is ridiculous:

    "there is a god"

    "how do you know?"

    "because god loves me."

    "how could you possibly know that?"

    "because the bible says so."

    "How do you know the bible isnt lying?"

    "Cause Jesus wrote it. He is the son of god, so he wouldnt lie."

    See?

    Just to clarify, Im not an atheist or a christian, just a little bit of everything sortof

    Well, seeing as how that is essentially the definition of an atheist troll, I'd say the answer is necessarily yes.

    "deliberately make ignorant points"

    You are, I presume, familiar with Poe's Law?

    It is the fact that Fundies *themselves* so frequently and consistently make such ignorant comments that makes it impossible to distinguish with absolute certainty between an atheist troll and a genuine Fundie. Religious fundamentalism is so inherently absurd that, if the troll is skilled enough, they can fool *anyone*.

    Yes. But the fact that you can't tell the difference easily is fun. It's easy to pick out Christians trying to play atheists.

    1: Christians are predominately American.

    2: The US general education system is no. 32 in the world.

    We don`t have to deliberately make ignorant points or use poor grammar to make christians look foolish, they are perfectly capable of doing that themselves.

    Yes, and some Christians do the same thing.

    I am an atheist troll but I generally do it for humor, not for pissing off other people by trashing their beliefs.

    Only psychopaths do that.

    I know one psychopath who has hundreds of accounts online. His name is Charles Rozier.

    He never leaves his computer.
