I forgot stupidity. Pro doesn’t argue this at all either, as such I would state this point is a draw to, but doesn’t change the determination.

I think this'll be my final post on this. I do not scorn the Christians for the failures of their laymen. If you want a smart Christian just look for a Jesuit, or a professional such as Alvin Plantiga, or Simon Conway Morris. Also Christian is applicable in the same way as Japanese because Christian is an Identity. That is however irrelevant as I have no interest in arguing wether it is justified to scorn a collective for the sins of another group within the said collective, Either way have a good day friend.

The Japanese are a race which is not the same at all as a member of an ideology. As for capitalists I have a similar disdain for them. Capitalism was cutting edge 200 years ago and there are plenty of intelligent capitalists (whereas there are barely any intelligent christians) but capitalism is becoming outdated. There is a reason why the greatest geniuses in modern times who are specifically the smartest people in history were socialists. We need to socially evolve in the same way we are evolving technologically or we are in for a future where we bring about our own demise as a species and capitalism is clearly not the ideal system if we to make it to type 1 civilization.

Well there's the distinction between you and I perhaps. I have been around Many a Christan, and I can say this fellow is quite the anomaly. The Orthodox tend to be very careful in how they argue. The Catholics have some of the MOST educated people I have ever seen under the banner of the Jesuits; I have a history in philosophy and even I find myself challenged by the average Jesuit. So maybe that is how we are different I do not see them as merely a group, but a vast collective with numerous shades in the same way you would examine the Japanese, or Capitalists.

Well at least some people have some sense around here it seems.I personally find it extremely difficult to respect anyone's opinion who is not at least either an Atheist, Agnostic or Deist. Christians are absolutely retarded and I truly feel as if they are subhuman intellectually.

@Type1

Well I am no atheist (I am a Deist) nor have I ever been convinced of any of it's general tenets, but I must say "OH MY GOD! THIS GUY GRANT IS RETARDED!"
He has no logic, and he doesn't even quote a single exegete. You have my vote this time around.
