I don't call myself an atheist, it's a label and I don't like labels and I think that I am so many things that identifying with just one of those things is,in my eyes, detrimental.

I love it when ultra-orthodox religious Atheists argue about church doctrine. Martin Luther is laughing his ass off right now.

There's an echo in here.
I'm not posting again until I get a mention in that "where did they go?" thread

Wasn't he that pervert that got caught nailing the church mouse whore?
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."
