Yes, yes, my model of atheist behavior derived from careful scientific study concurs with your prediction. Sadly, it is so.


What atheist behaviour?


You know, like when we eat babies. :roll:


Thanks for fielding that question for me Agrippina.

Um, actually, I think I misread Agrippina's original post- so never mind.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yeah, I don't understand the response either. My comment was meant to say that, according to how I interpreted the response "Yes, yes, my model of atheist behavior derived from careful scientific study concurs " that we're so badly behaved, especially because we eat babies, that we deserve to be killed before all other groups.

I'm still wondering how atheist behaviour has any significance on the point being made. It seems a bit of a stupid response to me.

As I said when I apologized, I miss read a previous comment. And as a result my subsequent post made no sense.

Once again, I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
