However, you have demonstrated with your language and attitude that individual atheists can suck and be just as insulting and intolerant as anyone else.

Mario observes: You have made no point. As we can see from your initial post -http://lists.goanet.org/pipermail/goanet-goanet.org/2008-December/085637.html - you were not criticising anyone or anything. You were simply being gratuitously insulting. Obviously, atheism hasn't made you tolerant, so there has to be a better way. It hasn't even made you open minded as we saw when you were busy slandering Sonal Shah.
