You said you hate that argument, it's NOT an argument (at least not about god's existence), it's just pointing out that atheists don't go around killing each other as opposed to people with differing religious views who kill each other ALL THE TIME (and kill atheists as well) That's it. What did I not understand, genius? |
That underlined part is not appreciated.
"it's just showing that there's no need to feel threatened by an atheist."
That's NOT the goal of that statement. Moreover, the statement is fuzzy, because it could imply (and I took it as such, but have now realised what you meant) that a theist needn't be threatened by an atheist (not in terms of wars, but on a singular - argumentative level).
"There are still 7 countries where the state can excecute citizens for being an atheist."
So then this does fit in. But it's not really appropriate. Those countries you are referring are also among (there is some overlap) the countries where you can get executed for adultery. No fair to put that in here.
Now that I see you're indeed behind you're argument, I'll say it again - it is overly used and infested with more emotion that reason.
OK? I'm just trying to be straight up in these forums, I don't mean to unnecessarily criticize, so I suppose I was a little too presumptuous about what you're meaning was there.
