Are there any real atheists

[Archie]

… I know … Christians … not say the equivalent of 'fecal matter' if … I know a very scholarly pastor and theologian who can strip paint and start small fires by cussing. The point is, theists believe in a God upon whom to call. Atheists supposedly do not. But if they really don't; why call out His name or title in moments of high stress?

I've only heard gods name taken in vain from theists, I've not heard it from atheists. Perhaps that's only coincidence?

Did you mean to put this in quotes? I don't recall from where it came.

I don't think that follows. I don't think atheists say exactly the same thing each time they are hurt or surprized, do they? Why should Christians?

This is from me. But I wasn't responding to the citation directly above and seemingly linked. My response as above, was in reply to your comment or question:

Are we to further assume that if a theist said "Crap" instead, he doesn't actually believe?

Which is a very good attempt at muddying the argument. Just curious, Q; did you mis-format the quotation and mis-quote intentionally?

I'm just trying to follow your logic.

By the way, if you've never heard "Goddammit" from a so-called atheist, you just don't get around much. In my experience, atheists use that phrase far more than believing Christians.

Personally I fail to see the problem. I could go into some long explanation but it has already been explained to you sufficiently. I would suggest that you pay attention to those explanations instead of focusing more on people's spelling and "mis-formatted" quotations.

And if atheists use the lovely phrase 'goddammit' more than theists it clearly shows that atheists don't give a goddam shit about the wrath of god. They are clearly daring the little fucker to come out of his hellhole and do something about a mortal who clearly doesn't give a fuck about his supernatural powers.

In fact. I dare you to strike me with lighting or a swarm of locusts right now.

See, no hesitation whatsoever to insult god because there is none.

Yup, now that I look at the post again, I did screw up the quotes. Sorry, my bad.
