He's a twerp, which is defined as someone who farts in the bath and bites the bubbles.

I have to steal this definition. LMAO as I peel off a copy...

How would you explain why

How would you explain why there is "evil" in the world and how can we combat against it?

Evil is a relative term. What may be evil to you may not be to me.

How would you say you view the world?

With my eyeballs.

Why are you an atheist?

Because I don't think the theory of evolution is a conspiracy. Just one reason among many.

UA, you wrote, “That your life's view point and devotion to proving there is no God is pointless and is wrong.”

Do you actually think that folks who are identified as atheist are ‘devoted to proving there is no god’?

Really?

Some are, my roommate back at Uni was an atheist nut job.. and I did my very best to piss him off by being extra attentive at my religion. True story.

Thanks for the back peddling

Thanks for the back peddling on the assertion about atheists.

I certainly did not "back

I certainly did not "back peddle", I merely pointed out that some are.. In other words I said some are more zealous about spreading their "atheist jihad" than others, who are more dormant. The person my comment was directed to is an atheist jihadi.. Read the damn original reply I commented on.. and quit trying to "sell me smarts", as they say in my country. The person speaks of "atheists advancing, while Christians are hiding in their fox holes".. That's one militant atheist, desperate for some "shit to go down".. No matter how hard you are trying to sell to me your supposed superior intellect.. your bias is showing, dearest Atheist.

Here read, dunce!

"Another gormless, spineless, brainless, gutless, thoughtless, witless wanker tosses a supposed theology grenade and then runs away pissing himself with fear.

The theists are in the foxholes. More and more atheists are out in the open advancing toward the enemy."

"some are more zealous about spreading their "atheist jihad" than others, who are more dormant. "

Is that why you've come to an atheist forum, to tell us to stop spreading our atheism?

"That's one militant atheist, "

Then we can add militant to the list of words you don't comprehend. Unless you think an atheists posting a metaphor denigrating the behaviour or mindset of theists, on a forum for atheists is representative of violent or confrontational behaviour. Now an angry chippy theists with an inferiority complex, and a severe case of Tourette's syndrome, who searches the internet for atheists to attack, that's a different matter.

Uh sorry, even you cannot deny that all the various religions unquestionably are the leaders in zealotry, Jihad (wow you even had to borrow that term from a RELIGION!) and brainwashing, mostly vulnerable children or by the edge of the sword (or the modern equivalent)

If atheist are advancing, it simply due to the spread of knowledge. What is really advancing especially in first world countries? The "nones" Religion has been in a long decline here in the US, especially outside the bible belt. Look at the number of cars on the roads in any large town/city, then look at the amount of cars in the parking lots of churches. The majority of people cant even bother to give 1 morning a week to their religion ideas anymore. In the US, what happens on sundays in the fall and winter? The NFL, not God.

I have no problem at all believing you really are a petty vindictive religious bigot. My sympathies go out to your roommate.

Typical Christian logic.

Typical Christian logic. You don't believe me, so you are saying my mythical fallacy does not exist. YES - your mythical fallacies do not exist. We can prove that every time you open your mouth. Now - with that said, why don't you share the "EVIDENCE" you have for your God without resorting to fallacies, appeals to emotion, or myth? I would love to hear what you have to say.

My answer to the Thread's OP

My answer to the Thread's OP is as everyone else has posted but not including anything posted by that UneducatedTheist character.

Except I would like add to Cognostic's answer to How do you view the world?

A: with "open" eyes.

I am not the one skipping

I am not the one skipping school. I've already graduated, six times.

Besides, all one need do is read your posts and see how uneducated you are.

It is precisely the knowledge that Religious Absolutists know they have no evidence to back up their preposterous claims that drives them to such hatred and violence against those who have a different argument that IS supported by hard empirical evidence. – paraphrased from The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins.

And think it was because I had quoted "my prophet" Richard Dawkins again. Guess he was correct about the hatred and violence of Religious Absolutists, huh?

Damn. And I didn't get to read it. My Greek is rusty, but I can manage. Oh well, probably was not worth reading anyway.

Thanks mods. And thanks for your earlier defense Sheldon.

So "UneducatedAtheists" has gone. What a pity. I hadn't finished with him. Did he try to win the argument by posting in Greek?

Oh well. I'll just have to continue the argument when I see him in hell. Or not.

The idea of good and evil is

The idea of good and evil is subjective. It is how we communicate and cognicse what we percieve to be favorable or unfavorable. The is no evidence that there is truely any absolute good or evil.
