Humourless, stupid, negative and above all now on my 'to be ignored' list.
Is that an entry for the 25th?

26 Thou shalt not claim your god exists as a FACT, without verifiable proof it is so.

11 is wrong.

I've never really got why people prefer white bread to brown, especially British white bread which is completely tasteless.

If you can't confirm the positive why should anyone else have to verify the opposite?

If you ask for verification you cannot expect not to be asked for it yourself.
I'm afraid it just makes you and those encouraging you guilty of humbug.

These are very good. I don't drink tea or shout out w......... (I do think that one is wrong;  think it or mutter it maybe but not shout it) but otherwise do most of those.

Non sequitur to what is being said.
If you are insisting that everything that is is verifiable then your insistence that everything that is is verifiable should be verifiable

Not NPF just logical positivism not verifiable by that which it insists verifies.

Sorry to have micturated on a few bonfires here.

I'm getting to think that a thread being turned into another arena for the never ending struggle between new atheism and, well, everything that isn't, comes with the territory of a forum marked Religionethics.
I think you'll find it was Floos 26th commandment what done it.

NO, it is your terminal inability to understand a single word that is said to you in definition of exactly what a fallacy, any fallacy, is!

Your insistence that you do not have to prove the God exists because atheists, or anyone else for that matter, cannot prove that he does not merely demonstrates your abysmal ignorabnce on the subject of  fallacies, which has, incidentally killed almost as many threads as have the blind and brainwashed proponents of Christainity.

Oh and, of course, that which you fondly think of as your sense of humour and you erudition in the matter of -isms.

But in the bliss of the bubble that is your car you can shout whatever you like.

Only don't call all drivers of white Range Rover Sports selfish dipsticks while in the school car park and then realise the kids have wound the windows down and someone's mum has heard you. Not that I'd do that.

As a wussy southerner I have to say I'm more likely to offer it be offered coffee than tea in most circumstances.
