I'm disinclined to continue responding if you continue BELIEVING that I am lying to you about the FACT that I am an atheist, that I have no religion, that I don't believe in God. If you presume that I am so wrong on every point that I don't even know my own religious beliefs, is there even any point for me to continue this discussion?

I love discussing these sorts of issues because I loving finding a point on which we can agree, even if we just agree that it's a difference of opinion. But I'm not convinced that it'd be worth either of our times to continue if that goal is impossible.

If you really are an atheist you've taken this whole idea of "open-mindedness" way too far and let a slough of nonsense overwhelm your rational sensibilities. Stop trying to be "ok" with everyone and everything. It's foolishness. There are truly fucked up people in this world with truly fucked up beliefs. You don't need to be "ok" with them. You need to confront them and help educate them. Fight ignorance, don't condone it. Help make the world a better place. If you have nothing to say in response to divinedefault, fine. But there's no reason to storm off in a huff and refuse further dialogue because he questions the authenticity of some of your claims. I doubted them too. Be a man. Deal with it. Get over it. Continue the dialogue if you can. If you can't, keep processing what he's said. He took a lot of time and spent a lot of effort replying to your blog post. You owe him more than this "I'M NOT TALKING TO YOU ANYMORE" nonsense.

Each of my arguments is clearly outlined in the aptly titled book "The Divine Default".
