What do atheists believe?
John Jones
For the atheist, the world is composed of real objects and stage magic
props; "God" is the name of a stage magic prop that some people use to
make real objects seem to vanish, suddenly appear, or behave oddly.
The atheist's "magical prop" arguments are grounded on a gloomy,
supernatural kitsch that is taken straight from Christian Halloween and
modern western stage magic.
That is why we find atheism's arguments abound with mocking references
to "pixies", "tooth-fairies", "unicorns", "lies", "deceptions", "smoke
and mirrors" and other magical references that tiresomely track
Christian Halloween and the efforts of Houdini and David Blaine.
Atheism's Christian anti-pagan agenda should bring some welcome news to
the Christian. But until that empty Christian agenda is rejected, the
atheist who claims to set himself against Christianity cannot be taken
seriously.

A more difficult question to answer is "What does John Jones believe?
He uses words as smoke and mirrors props to disguise his abiding
cynicism. Cynicism, I suspect, that extends to his own philosophical
non-position! :-)

A rather superficial resemblence, don't you think?
I mean Thor's mighty hammer and his gigantic
phallic snake nemesis don't sound much different
than Christianized Pagan Halloween.

So, in order to be taken seriously as, "anti-Christian,"
atheist have to leave the pagan emo gothtard wearers-

On the contrary, the non-theist has no need of any of the stage magic
that every theist religion depends on.

Is actually theism's "magical props", like bread and wine becoming flesh

So what's all this about?
Well you are clearly here to show how clever you think you are. Wakes

And so, here you are here. It does not matter what you say,
the glibber the better. It matters not that you come across as an
arrogant twit. It matters not that you lie or insult, all that matters
is that you satisfy you adolescent ego that you are' oh so superior'.
How about time we start to show you what you really are for
a change?
Already a picture has emerged:
Your arrogance is now clear.
You adolescence is now clear.
Your lack of morality and respect for others is now
clear. A clear sign of Christianity.
That you are willing to lie like a Christian is now clear.
That you are willing to mock and scorn like a Christian
is now clear.
That you are quick witted in an unimaginative way is now
clear (there is nothing original here we have seen it
all before)
Since you act like a Christian I will treat you as
one. True considering someone as a Christian is not
a nice thing to say about anybody but hey a Tit-for-tat
responce is fully justified now.
If you are not a Christian, and I have read you incorrectly I
apologise for the obvious slur. If you are too embarrassed
to explain what you actually believe I will understand your
reluctance to admit it.
Havibg made clear some of your repulsive character
traits All we need do now is test your intellgence and we will
have a fully rounded picture of your worth.
So intellgence test 1:
Please explan how you came to abandon your natural
absence of belief (as born with) that there was something
others call 'god' and started to share their wierd beliefs
and became a repulsive Christian?

Belief in No God is the same as disbelief in God. Since belief is not
based on scientific evidence, it is a religion.
