Reply #29: LOL--well, there are a few Mrs. Rochesters in the mix., blowing hot air.

I'm talking here about the "all religious people are crazy/deluded" crowd.

The ones who think religous istruction for children is chlld abuse and "something should be done about it"--something legal, presuably, since that's how child abuse is addressed.

The adolescent idiots who feel they prove something by sticking a nail through a communion host.

The ones who wholeheartedly adopt the S. Acharya/Zeitgeist woo-woo and preach it enthusiastically as any born-aginner, proving once again that Barnum was right.

The ones who claim martyrdom, despite the fact that there have been fewer hate crimes against atheists than any other minority group.

Talking about what one is thinking is almost always good. But these guys spend a whole lot more time talking about what they think other people are thinking--and they're usually wrong.

And just incidentally, I see no reason why I, as a woman, should give attention to anything at all a raving misogynist has to say.
