You are so far the least polite person I've seen in this forum. Every second of your comments seems to some attack on atheists, which you apparently despise simply for not bowing to your deity.
I made my criticism clear with my comparison, while you simply called me a clown.
If you want to say something in defense of this blatant bigotry, then do it. Don't distract with personal attacks
On the contrary. You made no argument. And for the record I could not care less what your religious beliefs are. You will find that many atheist are uncomfortable with my criticisms for this very reason. You will not find me quoting Bible versus to you EXCEPT when you are speaking of my beliefs rather than your own.
You made a comparison that made no sense. In other words you are wrong. You said:
T
hat is wrong. A bigot has as much worth in a discussion on society and morality as an astrologer has in a debate on astrophysics.
What absurdity. First. A bigot has a great deal of worth in discussing a bigoted society. A society such as....well all of them since to a greater or lesser degree all societies contain vast numbers of bigots. And these bigots inform the public debate, vote in elections, raise children, hold public office, make employment decisions and run businesses. You may not like them and you may wish to ignore them but they are engaged, powerful and a force with which we who wish to end bigotry must contend. You "write them off" at your own peril.
You mention the contributions of an "astrologer in a debate on astrophysics". Can you see why this is a poor comparison? I most certainly can. I'll bet so can just about everyone here. You picked astrology because you consider it a fantasy. Bigotry is not a fantasy. It is a vital, dynamic and important fact of life in every society.
So is religion I might add as that is your logical conclusion. There is no society on this planet that is not profoundly affected by the religious beliefs of its population. You may not like that but it is a fact of life with which you will be well advised to come to grips.
So you are the one who is acting defensive rather than proving your argument. I see no reason to hide from you or throw snowballs. You got caught and are embarrassed. That's all.

I have no problem with some atheists. The respectful and mature ones are not on my radar. The childish and disrespectful ones I am happy to engage.
We aren't all like drlee. I promise..
We? To what group are you referring?
In addition, praise the quality of rap music and recommend that the state play it to children.
You needn't go so far. Just praise the "quality" of some rap music. Particularly that which is misogynist, violent and racist. But wait Comrade Tim. Aren't you a communist? Aren't you opposed to racism?
