I love these. Specially from believers.
Here is a comment in response to this post.

I’d add that the atheists all need to do the same.  Because yours is a faith position just as much as mine is.  I know, I’m lobbing a raw steak to a bunch of lions, here… but it bothers me when I (as a Christian) am not allowed to “know” something that is a faith commitment, but you as atheists (I’d actually call you scientific naturalists, because that title reflects the two sides, scientific and philosophic) are allowed to be just as obnoxious as Fred Phelps in your “knowing” that I am wrong.

Here is my response:

Is not believing in a evidence lacking idea called god a faith position?
If that were the case then not believing in unicorns would be a faith
position just as much as yours is. Would you agree to that?

I’m sorry but “faith” is not “knowing” in any sense of the word.
Remeber that “a casual stroll through a mental asylum shows that faith proves nothing”.

And lastly I find funny how Christians like you, in an attempt to
insult atheists, have to compare us to or say we are like other  Christians.

My irony meter just broke…
Merry Winter Solstice.

“Merry Winter Solstice”. The icing on the cake. I bet that felt like a dagger going trough his heart.
