Hmm so if I call a retard a retard, I should pat myself on the back?
Enforce the opinion on him, convince him of it?
Is that how it works?

because THAT would be an exaple of the old boeing alegory
I knew you were going to ask me that. I recognise that I (knowingly, and somewhat facetiously) made an overstatement.
Pointing out delusional thinking is Good.
[Note: I'm not saying that theists are delusional. I think the fact that we're all here, in this thread, makes that clear.]

i'd like to point out that I'm not an atheist
No just into buying his books. Full of illogical opinions.
OPINIONS
you buy the book and read it, the conclusions are your own
Pick a label then.
Yup, overstatements are not truth; but they are good for pointing out that truth is a very subjective quality.
All thinking is delusional thinking, even logic is a concept that makes sense to some peoples neurons. Other people's logic is your illogic.
You're too smart for this. Frankly, why bust your chops? You're a good guy, you do (as far as I know) all the right stuff. Philosophical musings are so much mental masturbation, when there is no practical objective, nah?
fine, i'll put it in different words: because it is improbable
and it is a scientific question, as theists often claim that god comunicates with them
hmmm can I be a monist, please?
I have all his books; I find him polemic, to be honest. Stephen Jay Gould is more my cup of tea.
Not to say I don't enjoy reading Dawkins, but I never confuse an opinion with a fact.

I disagree. Logic is mathematic. Mathematic is exact.
were you scamed, then?
For something to be probable or improbable, it has to be defined.
As for communication, there may be an objective analysis there, PMS used to be called hysteria and natural sexual inclination, nymphomania.
That is only because he is your pal, theres nothing wrong with that. If he made even one ant-Muslim post you would think otherwise. But of course he bashes Americans so he is your chum. And htat ok too.
Anything we are not 100% certain of, without absolute proof would also be improbable?
Mathematic is also a concept.
Nah. I agree. No harm in a little mental masturbation though. Far from making you go blind it may even lead you into the Light.
[One day I'll make a statement that's 100% irony-free. One day..]
