one less god than a Christian

[juldea]

Just had to share this one: "It has been pointed out that most believers are atheistic with respect to rival pantheons, and that an atheist merely believes in one less god than a Christian."

From one of the comments to this rather good read: An Athiest Manifesto

I don't at all get the impression that he is attempting to "get people angry at him." I think that HE is angry. Quite different.

oh i get htat he is angry... but his writing reads... liekhe wants to provoke a fight

He's trying to provoke people to THINK...

except i doubt he will. generally epopel don't liekbiegn called stupid,a nd that is what he does... he does nto phrase his points in a way that would make peopelthink, or understand, or even try do either. he phrases his points in a way that tends to jsut make peopel too pissed off at him to think at all.

I don't disagree with you that his words have the effect of pissing people off. I just disagree that he's TRYING to do that.
