Isn't underage drinking illegal? I can't imagine anyone older than 17 asking the vast majority of stupid "atheist" questions I see here.
Explain please????

P.S. I am not attacking or judging anyone. I could care less what you choose to believe. That's your call.

Oooh Didi...you're so smart, you rebel! Did you even read the rest of my statement? I am not attacking people's *religious beliefs or lack of*. Bottoms up!

"Atheist" is in quotations because the vast majority of adult atheists are above asking the stupid "atheist" questions we see here. If I were an atheist, I'd be insulted that such people were representing my values.

So in other words, I am attacking the young misguided people who claim to be "atheists". Real atheists would not concern themselves with the stupid questions asked by the "atheists" here. Therefore, since I am not attacking true atheists, I am not attacking anyone's belief system.

It is the repeat questions that we "drink" to - the same questions have been asked here on R & S thousands of times.
I guess it is more of an inside joke for the regulars here. I don't even drink anything alcoholic, but I still play the game!!
I apologize to anyone who has taken it seriously. It is not meant to offend anyone.

It's more symbolic than anything. How many times can the same question be asked over and over again? Too many. Atheists aren't the only ones who get involved in the drinking games. Me: Buddhist AND you can drink carrot juice if you want but a beer is more fun. 99% of the time, I don't even have a beer when I 'play' the drinking games. It's just fun. That's all.

"I am not attacking or judging anyone?"
And yet you say:
"I can't imagine anyone older than 17 asking the vast majority of stupid "atheist" questions I see here."
Right. I think I heard that all before, many times.
*drink*
And by the way, I drink orange juice.

Coke if anything here (the legal beverage, not the illegal powder). I trace it to the lack of a FAQ for this site. If we could sticky a list of questions (or get people to actually read the similar questions), then most of the drinking questions would evaporate. I hope.

I don't know many of us that actually do actual drinking but I speak for me when I do it figuratively. If I really drank to these questions I would be damaging my body lol. Theists don't have many good questions to or about atheists/atheism.

You are dealing with many immature young people who will grow to value respect, the opinions of others and perhaps even God.
Treat the respectfully (as much as you can) and model maturity for them. It is a tough job but someone has to do it.
