Fellow atheists: Do you sometimes get the impression that we actually take this religion business rather more seriously than the godsters do? And if so, what might be the reason(s) for this?
What I mean is: They dodge and weave, make up untenable explanations, constantly revise their definitions and insist that we're misconstruing them no matter what they claim. It's been a long time since high school debate team but I'm certain that if any of us had ever indulged in such tactics, our coach would have benched us and told us to quit wasting his time.
Impressions? Speculations? "WMA, are you short on caffeine this morning?" . . . .
(Aside to believers: You're welcome to weigh in on this, or you can sit it out and say a prayer for us heathens, if you like.)
