Lockjaw Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I wish you could see the irony in your statement. Rootsy, have you noticed that everybody else has dropped out? You're being trolled ... by Grahame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirmisher Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 I don't want to try and covert anyone, but if you just have an open mind roots, you can answer that yourself, but you have to be willing, it takes mental strength to see through the lies of atheism. What lies? It's just a word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootsBooster Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Rootsy' date=' have you noticed that everybody else has dropped out?

Although, Drone hasn't denied anything yet. Still, I don't believe Grahame could keep up such a charade (the spelling/grammar mistakes and inability to string a coherent sentence together) long enough before his agenda got the better of him and he started frothing.

onewheeldave Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Just going back to the poll, this link may be of use- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weak_atheism i.e. option 1 in the poll 'absence of belief in God' would be 'weak atheism', while option 2 'belief that God does not exist', would be 'strong atheism' Seems pretty logical. clearly in polls like this, and, in threads discussing religion/atheism, it should now be apparent that there's never going to be a scenario where both sides are going to agree on one meaning only for the term 'atheist', so adopting the above solution should allow such discussions to progress?

janie48 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 You probably need to deduct one of these votes on the poll, as one of you has just become a theist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your link: "By positive atheism I mean an active struggle against everything that reminds us of God – that is to say, anti-theism rather than atheism" So basically going along with what I've always said (and many others). Atheism is to be without belief in God. The recently coined term "positive atheism" is actually anti-theism, which by default, is also without belief in God, therefore atheist and then some. I've always said this in all the relevant threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

janie48 Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Clarify ? Well i'm not certain but Drone may have voted before ,and he was an atheist when he first came on the thread,so if you knew he had voted wouldn't you wish to discount that vote.
