OP. This post is not aimed at you personally, but at the video, which I have just finished...
I have never seen anyone try so hard to convince themselves something doesn't exist. It's really quite simple. There is no god, and I don't hate him/her/it, because he/she/it does not exist. However, I, along with many other atheists, ant-theists, and anti-religionists, have grown weary of having the xtian version of a non-existent deity, shoved down our throats for the past 2000 years.
When atheists talk about "god", it's no different than talking as if a unicorn existed. It doesn't, but if I say I would like to ride one if it did, then I suppose by the video's logic, I must actually believe in unicorns, or I wouldn't be talking about them, or want to ride one. Sure, that makes sense. NOT.
Although you may say it was in a hypothetical context, you cannot deny the real emotion. Why is there real emotional attachment, some would even say obsession, over something that they SHOULD, feel indifferent about.
Let me come to your house daily, for the rest of your life, with Koran in hand, and do my best to convince you that that Allah, not Jesus, is the real savior. How long before you throw me out of your house in anger? Why get angry? Allah doesn't exist.
Another interesting observation. Have you noticed that hardcore Atheists seem to have a lot of vested energy in combating creationists? I wonder why that is.
This has been answered thousands of times on ATS. It is because xtianity has spent the last 2000 years vesting every bit of energy they have in conquering the world, by whatever means necessary, including murder, genocide, and torture. Of course, these days we have a kinder, gentler, xtian who wears us down with sheer volume of attacks against our sensibilities.
I am all for anyone believing whatever they want. But don't come knocking on my door, or telling me how I'm going to spend eternity separated from a god I don't even believe exists. I'm sorry, but evangelical/fundamentalist xtianity has earned the vitriol it receives many times over.
Thanks Klassified this should be a required prerequisite reading sticky post before any threads about Atheist are posted.The same baseless tirades against over and over will wear on any reasonable persons senses.The fact the many fail to see is it is far more detrimental to believe in a false God that is not real than to NOT believe in a false God...thanks for denying ignorance.
If it wears on you that much why are you even here in the thread and partaking? Just for the spectacle?
No I am here doing what the website Above Top Secret mission statement and motto is ..deny ignorance.I am not trolling as you are.

Unfortunately Evolution is false and you have all been fed a massive lie.
Even if you're right, they would still apply to Creationists as well. You see, it makes no difference if you try and deflect your dishonesty onto someone else and claim "Well they do it too". You're still equally at fault.
I'm not dishonest.
What do you guys think about this?

Any thoughts?
You all don't realize but you have been indoctrinated and brainwashed
That is a very real thing and you have probably been so brainwashed and indoctrinated that you can't even see it.

As I said if anyone is the victim of brainwashing/indoctrination here that would be you.
Are you finding this whacked out stuff on your own or is it being taught to you via some online course or your church.
Seriously man if you actually believe the stuff you keep presenting and pushing you need to find a good head shrink before you completely lose your grip on reality. The stuff you are spouting is unhealthy for you. Honest question here. Are you some part of a christian cult?
Lol I don't go to church I read the bible. You are so ignorant.
Why did you disappear from the thread instead of engaging in conversation about your dishonesty?
