I see quite a few similarities between our forums, but do you think it's odd that none of their arguments seem to be more than a few lines long and lack all substance? Not to mention redundant. And how about the number of them?
It's amazing how easy it is to make attacks based on nitpicky details like an atheist using the word "hell". I know we do it all the time, but I'm not seeing any developed arguments against atheism.
I like the comment on how different Christian Fundamentalists are from Islamic ones, with no mention of the KKK, the Crusades, the Inquisition, etc. Is there some violent Atheist Fundamentalist club I should be joining?
I hate to do the same thing they were with the lacking substance, but I'm simply taken aback here. Anyone have any ideas as to what else is going through their minds? Know thine enemy, after all.

It would appear that lack of substance is the one consistency in most of their arguments. When you cut through the self-righteousness and the bravado, there really isn’t a lot remaining. Even when you find the pseudo-intellectual Theist who is under the delusion that he/she is authoring a lengthy diatribe exposing once and for all the utter fallacy of Atheists, it is truly amazing how much of the 109 stilted pages is smoke and mirrors. I have the impression that most of these twisted individuals dwell in a fuzzy logic world where they bend reasoning to fit their superstition. They see Atheists as the enemy, not because Atheists don’t believe in their gods, but because Atheists keep pointing out the many flaws in their positions.
I don’t know that it is imperative for Atheists to wage a direct battle against these lunatics. The advancement of science is inevitable. They can slow it, but they can’t stop it. It is my belief that eventually the greater body of humanity will have to abandon theism as they were forced to abandon notions of a flat Earth. Will we live to see it? Probably not.
