		<description><![CDATA[You know Toddy, - the pile of shit you just wrote, disguised as serious inquiry, is simply a poor attempt to trash atheists. It is interesting to me that the moral obtuseness you exhibit is typical of the lunatic fringe of the fundamentalist movement in your gratuitous demonstration of false premises, mischaracterization of atheism and poor reasoning skills. 

Those of us who do not believe as you in no way possess a &quot;negative world view... that lacks meaning&quot;. Your transparent bigotry toward ideas that don&#039;t fit in with your pinched view of existence demonstrates a seriously jaded and distorted perception of reality. Your rational faculties are quite seriously damaged by fundamentalist ideology. if you actually believe atheists are too dangerous to raise children I sincerely think you are in need of serious clinical help. Fortunately your views, seriously disturbed though they may be, are extremely rare in civilized societies so they are of no real threat.

May the god you invented help you.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That didn&#039;t come out quite right.  Atheists must see some purpose to their existence, or they wouldn&#039;t bother arguing the point.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m curious what morality and ethics might mean to an atheist.  A non-atheist would base their view on the notion that there is a purpose to existence.  It just seems to me that these two views cannot even have an intelligent dialogue on the subject.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is sick. Is it any more responsible for atheists to bring a child into the world and teach them that they are lucky to exist, than it is for radically religious parents to bring in a child, just to have it inflict harm on other, spread ignorance, or die any way because of attempts at faith healing? After all how many babies have atheists let die, because we wanted God to heal them isntead of a doctor? I pray (it&#039;s a joke get it? Because I&#039;m an atheist actually) that this is a poe...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Russel is exactly right. You christians need a supernatuaral  deity to feel protected and secure. Of course it appearently doesn&#039;t matter how many people this god has killed because of their religious beliefs or because he just didn&#039;t like them. Before you discredit me by saying that that stuff happened mostly in the the Old Testament (which is true) take this into consideration: Jesus- the supposed &quot;son of god&quot; himself has said not to doubt the Old Testament but to also believe him. Another point, where is there any evidence whatsoever that the Bible is truthful or that god even exists!? If to answer this you say that God is real because the Bible says he is and the Bible is truth because god says it is............ that pause should have been long enough for you to realize utter stupidity of that reasoning. Also, why would god give himself names like Malachi, Luke, Peter, Thomas etc, etc  and then make it look like he was writing letters to his different aliases? Why would he write in third person?
       It would appear to me because of your biggotry towards the common atheist that you also dissaprove of the homosesexual caste. How do you explain this? Most christians would simply quote (with deficit of accuracy) some austere passage from the OLD TESTAMENT of your seriously diturbed holy book. Note the &quot;OLD TESTAMENT&quot; :earlier in my letter I mentioned the violence in the old testament (that you probably tossed out because the O.T. is either outdated, discredited because you believe Jesus said so even though that conflicts with other things he said, indicating that multiple people wrote this clumsy fictional novel) and yet you use the vilifying Old Testament as shaky ground for a defense on your religious beliefs.
         God is a hippocrite. Have you ever heard of The Fourth Book of Moses (Exodus), namely a certain commandment commonly known as &quot;THOU SHALT NOT KILL&quot;. guess who kills enough people to make Osama Bin Laden look like a Boy Scout. It is of course your &quot;loving&quot; god just look through whatever version of the book of psudo-science you and your constiuents use and I assure you that you will find more instances of plundering, rape, murder, baby killing, burning (both of people and their villages), stoning, torture, extortion and pirac (all requested by or endorsed/authorized by God) than in any other book holy or otherwise ever written
         In conclusion I ask anyone who agrees or dissagrees(especially if they dissagree) to e-mail me at sonofsling@hotmail.com if you disagree you can also go to   evilbible.com, burnjes.us, or whywontgodhealamputees.com
