[quote=Yog Sothoth]i would like to point out that in today's world people are treated as inferior because they lack understanding, which is why I make criticisms of ignorant atheists.[/quote]

That's like saying that because some people are bad we should kill all white people. There's utterly no connection there. At all... Even basic philosophy follows some kind of basic paradigm of logic. I'm sure you know this.

[quote=Yog Sothoth]also in my opinion, being angry does not give one the right to be ignorant,[/quote]

Yet you're arguing for the "right" to be taken seriously despite your abhorrent spelling and grammar. You are willfully ignorant of how actual English functions.

Also, who the hell are you to be telling people whether or not they're allowed to be ignorant? A person is allowed to not know something. That's not evil, that's... Very normal. The first step to wisdom, in fact, is to admit that you know [i]nothing[/i]. You argue that atheists calling people dumb makes them assholes then turn [i]right[/i] around and say that people are not allowed to be ignorant.

[quote=Yog Sothoth]that is called double standards[/quote] 

Something you know quite intimately, apparently.

[quote=Yog Sothoth]and is why it is harder to break down prejudices.[/quote]

Like the ones you have against atheists. Because after all, [i]only atheists would ever call people dumb[/i]. That logic is totally, completely infallible.

[quote=Yog Sothoth]bullies are the way they are usually because they themselves have been bullied, does that give them the right to hurt other people? no it doesn't. there should never be an excuse for ignorance.[/quote]

Ignorance =/= [b]Bullying[/b]. The fact that you equate the two to be inseparable is actually somewhat disturbing. Ignorance is to bullying what ice cream is to a bicycle: Nothing in common. Ignorance is not knowing something, it is the lack of awareness of something. This is not a crime, and it's not unreasonable. We are human beings, mammals with limited capacity for knowledge, flawed memories that are often poisoned by emotion, and whose primary organ for conscious function we still don't understand all that well.

Bullying is malicious behaviour done with the intent to attack and degrade someone. There are many reasons why this happens, not just because someone who was bullied becomes a bully. That logic makes no sense, if that was true, everyone who was bullied should become a bully, but that's not what it. It has a lot more to do with upbringing, financial and social stimulus and problems, than it does with having been bullied. I was bullied, I'm not a bully now. Most of my friends were, the majority of them are not bullies now.

You approach this topic with an extremely black and white opinion. That doesn't strike me as philosophy, which is a field prone to being so grey it sometimes hurts to try and understand it. Again, read the thread, and when you see that nobody was attacking anyone or trying to degrade each other, you'll see what I mean.

Not that it matters now, me thinks, you've thoroughly derailed this thread from its original course into lands that will likely get it closed. Good job.

nice way of showing how much of an asshole you are. you're just proving my point about how atheist like you are ignorant dicks like the religious extremists. you sir are sad and pathetic

You know. Posts like these show what kind of a person you really are. To presume characteristics and traits about other people you don't even know, so you can further dehumanize them and reassure yourself that the cruel things you say to them are justified. Things like calling someone an asshole because they find your writing hard to understand, or how people who disagree with you are, as you so put it, "ignorant dicks". Perhaps, as a philosopher, it's time for you to sit down, and be introspective with yourself. Ask yourself, genuinely, why you feel the need to call someone who didn't like your lack of English skills a "sad and pathetic" person.

You hate bullies, and yet, you behave like one here. After all, you're trying to degrade Kadaeux and viciously attack him on a personal level because, again, I must stress this... He didn't like the way you wrote something.

Congratulations. You are the perfect epitome of the phrase "pot meeting kettle". Please. I implore you. Learn how to be a decent person, [i]then[/i] learn how to read threads, [i]then[/i] you can start posting and be taken seriously.

This whole thread is terrible, but I'd like to point out this post because I've never seen someone so scared of brown people.

It's a terrible day when I agree with you, but yes, that is extremely amusing. :lol
