The only Atheists I have met in real life have acted this way, so therefore I will base some of my arguments on how I have seen some real Atheists act. Your obviously missing the parts where I said or implied that this was with Atheists that I have met personally. Obviously not all Atheists act this way, some or many might even be completely respectable of other religions.
Explain to me exactly what I missed, because after quoting your words verbatim the phrasing didn't change. You said...
"Same here. Atheists just automatically assume that every single religious person is brainwashed to the point of ignoring reality.""I also find it odd that Atheists say that other religions are pushy and try to convert people against their will. In my own experiences, I find that the most pushy out of religious groups is the Atheists by far. Rather then getting along and saying Atheists believe in nothing and Catholics believe in a God, Atheists basically say your fucking wrong and that your stupid for having personal beliefs."I'm even linking to your exact post
here.
You made broad sweeping generalizations about a group of people and now that you've been called out on it you're backpedaling. What point were you trying to make exactly? There is nothing in your wording to indicate anything other than blatant stereotyping.
As for them trying to convert people, I'm once again basing my writings off of my experiences with Atheists in real life. I am not saying they all act this way.
Show me evidence in response to the first time I questioned you on this.
You missed the point completely. I am not saying its the truth, I am saying its the truth in my opinion.
If you understand what you've said doesn't accurately reflect everyone within a group then why are you holding onto your original convictions so fervently?
Same could be said for your opinion since theres no way to prove if there is a God or not.
This doesn't even make sense. Not once did I ever bring up "God" or my own beliefs. My response was regarding your generalizations of a social group.
The fact you felt so compelled to go off on this tangent is evidence to me that you have little confidence in your own opinions.
Also good job on picking apart my statement to make me look ignorant. I'm 15 so it probably wasn't even that hard in the first place.
I quoted you
verbatim, and yes when you say the things you say you do you look ignorant.

I'm not understanding what point you're making?
