		<description>Ugh, I browsed through the comments, but it gets quite old having people tell me what I believe.  &quot;No, really...you think you believe X, but really, you believe Y.&quot;  Or then there&#039;s this, &quot;Well, you&#039;re just one of the exceptions -- a moral atheist.  It must be because of your Christian upbringing.&quot;

SIGH.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;A universe that isn’t God-centered becomes ego-centered. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
So, thinking that you are one of the pet favorites of the universe&#039;s freaking Creator isn&#039;t ego-centered?  Just how does that work, exactly?</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I agree we’d be better off making our case if we didn’t look down upon all religious people as if they had never put an ounce of thought into the subject of religion&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Hemant, I agree, but it is difficult to not look down at religious people who write the clpatrap he did in this &quot;article&quot;.  There are only so many times I can be told I can&#039;t have morals without god or that our country was based on the 10 commandments before I come across as an &quot;angry atheist&quot;.  Maybe I need to pray to Odin for more patience . . . :)</description>

		<description>[...] Atheism Is the Final&#160;Word 17Apr07    Via Friendly Atheist I found this: Atheism isn&#8217;t the final word, by Don Feder. Let&#8217;s pick it apart, shall we? Oh, for the days when one could safely stroll into a bookstore without tripping over the latest atheist title. Ironically, by writing their tracts, in the long run atheists might boost belief.

Keep the respect going.  It&#039;s amazing how many enemies you can make by being nice.</description>

		<description>I always appreciate your understanding towards religious people.  I&#039;m glad you included that &quot;humility&quot; quote and your comments.  You are quite unique in the online atheist crow for that, and I appreciate it.</description>
