I hate people sometimes.
I'll probably attend Pitt next year, and I want to join/start an atheist club. I posted:
"Who's with me? =]
I know someone tried to start a Freethinkers Society at Pitt but I haven't seen any evidence of it. lolz"
GUY: "religion is never a good thing to talk about, only gets people angry"
ME: "So? People have a right to be atheists just as they have a right to be Christians or Hindus. Try saying that to a Jewish Society lol"
Le sigh...

I think that guy needs a Debbie Downer sound after everything he says.
"I want to start a club!"
"Clubs just go around excluding everyone." Wah Waaahhh.
I wouldn't give up, especially since that guy's clearly Eeyore.
Le mew.

Wait, you hate them only sometimes?!
You stole my line
Anyway,it's annoying when people say stuff like,' you mustn't argue about religion it isn't polite.' I'm fully behind what Dawkins says, that the stigma and respect attached to religion must be beaten before religon can go. So never miss a chance to make people angry,though it's their fault if they do.Can't their god look after himself?
Hope you find some club mates..

isn't getting the people angry the best part of talking about religion?
Jesus said, fuck you religious hypocrites ! Buddha said, why worry about god ? .....

A guest speaker told me the same thing in class yesterday as a matter of fact. If someone gets offended because of a religious topic, all I can think of is that it's their problem. Would they get so offended if their viewpoint was 'actually true'?
Slimm,
i agree. Remaining calm while they(theists) go apeshit is almost as satisfying as good sex.
Of course, when in private discussions emotions can go from calm pity to anger in a hertbeat. The spouse breaks psycho sometimes, but makeup coitus defuses it 80% of the time.
It really isn't their fault. The religion causes it. By no means should that lessen our enjoyment. lol.

Here's a game: when debating theists see who resorts to personal insults first. So far it's always the theist.

That's an interesting one. I mean, would you go apeshit on someone who proposed for whatever reason that gravity didn't exists for whatever reason?
I'd just laugh.

Haha - sometimes. Like when they're jerks about it.

But that's what usually happens. At first it's, "there's a God, and he has a beard!". Laugh.
"No, really."
"Okay, joke's over - leave me alone."
"But there's a God, and if you don't believe me ... uh, I mean ... in Him ... then you're going to Hell. It's bad there. Forever."
"It was funny at first, but now you're being ridiculous."
"Believe!"
"Fuck off!"
etc.
Maybe that's why believers think atheists are angry. We're just annoyed.

He deleted his post. Pussy.
Just tell him you agree a hundred percent - and if only everyone could simply stop believing in all that religion crapology to the point that they have to go on (and on and on and on and on) about it just think of how benign and pleasant we all could become (and how less noisy the world would be)! It might be a small step, but your Freethinkers Group is a step therefore in a very worthwhile direction, isn't it?
At the very least it might save a few doorbells some wear and tear from Jehovah's Witness abuse.
