No, I do not need to defend myself. None of your bullet points applies to me. I don't hate Christians. You merely amuse me.
I only get pissed off when Christians want to use the law to force me into their mold. That's authoritarian. We've got a secular goverment for very good reasons. In this, the social cons are as bad as the liberals.
Live and let live. Or live and let die, as the case may be.
Some of the things atheists say are used as didactic devices, it doesn't mean we actually believe them. I'll admit, atheists are people too, just a little more evolved ;-). Some are nasty, some are nice, but we aren't all hateful.
OK, when Christians won't believe whats in front of their eyes is irksome too. "God made the universe to look old!" Lulz.
Yes, it isn't fair to say the same thing regarding Christians all being hateful.
I save my bile for libs. Now there's a bunch with unprobable beliefs!
OK. Supergirl has convinced me. I am going to church next Sunday.
