One Atheist's understanding of theism and/or Christianity:
You have "One Christian's understanding of atheism;" Thread 157849
Please reciprocate with your understanding of theism? Thanks.
Originally posted by Grampy BobbyTheism is the state reached by people abused by their parents who need an alternative authority figure.

Without this state to keep them in check, theists would rape and murder without a moment's hesitation. All theists are really atheists in denial, and secretly want atheists to convince them that no God exists. Theism is a bleak and pitiless existence, as its followers are unable to discern good from bad without reference to their God, and only look forward to the day when they can exalt in the eternal torment of others.

Based on the dozens and dozens of posts to "One Christian's understanding of atheism..."
I hoped a few more than two articulate atheists were still contributing to this forum.
