What exactly would you consider as an example of an extreme atheist/atheist westboro then?


I wait with bated breath.
To say nothing of their ease of manufacture.

Neither do they.
A rough head estimation from WW2 (80 megadeaths) by Deist/Atheist Hitler, Mao's Great Leap Forward (25 million), Chinese Civil war (30 million) and the Holodomor (5 million). Estimates vary wildly of course, but I think you'll find that the post 1700 world (when the enlightenment made Atheism more acceptable) those without religion have been responsible for far more death than those with in absolute terms. Far worse in proportional terms.
Because it proves my point. The fault lies not in my repeating the argument but on those who fail to answer.

If my argument is specious as you claim, then simply indict it as such with some helpful evidence. Come up with over 140,000,000 deaths since 1700 caused by the religious. In fact, you may begin with 140,000,000 deaths period and proceed from there.
Absolutely both are common. The bolt action rifles which made cavalry obsolete are extremely simple. The complexity of firearms is greatly exaggerated. 9mm Stens can be made in a bicycle shop. Lancer is no doubt referring to energy weapons, vertibirds, power armor and such.

This post represents why debating with you is pointless.


Care to be a little less vague?
I did, several times. You keep coming back with the same arguments though, so it'd be a waste of breath to keep the cycle going.


You have not and I have not. Your contrived semantic explanation was not sufficient and the moment I changed to "non-religious governments and societies are on the whole more violent" rather than "Killing in the name of atheism" which your sophistical efforts could defend against, you decided to give up. Now answer the question.
The unfortunate fact that cavalry has been militarily useless since the advent of high capacity very accurate man portable firearms notwithstanding,

Solution: Mules/Donkeys/other analogues.
I should have been clearer.

I am describing the army's origin. It, the institution, is over 200 years old, while of course its membership is not. In that paragraph I describe what happened in the immediate aftermath of the great war, 200 years ago, and the "continuation" of the "United States" with its capital in Fort Lewis.
