Do you think many true believers need to brush up on their literature and reading comprehension?

Question

I think it would benefit them greatly to know metaphors, symbolism, irony, sarcasm.....
Do any other atheists/agnostics regularly see this problem?

Answer 1

The only problem I see is the self righteous, vapid, condescending vitriol from your genre who vehemently screeches to be left alone and free from harrassment in how you live your lives yet steadfastly continue your attacks and malignment of people of Faith.

Sorry for the big words, hypocrite--buy a dictionary and brush up on your own reading comprehension.

Answer 2

I don't think we should limit lack of grammar, literature and reading comprehension to "true believers", it is just as likely to attack all religions since it has nothing to do with religion. Those of you who profess to a belief in the innate good of humans (Humanists, etc.) should know that tolerance for others has no barriers. It is not your place to criticize the beliefs of others any more than it is their place to criticize yours. Do not be a hippocrite! You derive satisfaction in your philosophy, allow others their right to derive satisfaction from theirs (i.e. - belief in God and the Bible) even if you do not. This is suppose to be a forum to discuss religious questions, NOT make catty remarks about people with different religious beliefs than our own.

Answer 3

It is glaringly apparent. When they watch, "The Atheist Delusion" video on YouTube, they think it proves atheists are wrong! Even though it clearly calls itself a "a P1SSPOOR PRODUCTION" (you have to read the beginning credits) Yikes!

Answer 4

Oh yes, I agree. They should also invest in a good dictionary, then look up terms such as "myth" and "scientific theory".

Answer 5

Not if they want to remain "true believers."
