re: #210 suchislife

did you read the comment where I said that I agree with his point, and that’s why I’m an atheist? I’m just saying, he does make a judgement, and I didn’t like the consensus that he just critizises extremists and shouters. Imo he implicity but clearly critizises religion, and while I’m fine with that, I don’t expect a religious person to be.

One of the things you might be missing is that in logical argument you must if you are intellectually honest and consistent also state what some of the major objections to your statement might be. You then explain why those objections don’t work. Explaining why you think an argument doesn’t hold water is not an attack on religion per se, it’s explaining what you think and why.
