Elf, I know you’ve had a go at the “shouty atheists” and mentioned them not being open minded, but have you thought about what they’re saying?
Maybe not what they’re saying but why? Why are they “shouty”?
Let me give you an example.
I met this bloke, shellsuit, perm, ‘tache. Anyway he told me about this thing called “Liverpool Football Club”. Only the true Scousers understood it. You had to be from Liverpool to support it. No compromise.
Well, I aint avin this I thought, so I told him he was wrong. I had observed evidence that there were blokes from places as far away as London that supported the ‘Pool too. Hard fact, versus his belief.
But he wouldn’t listen, kept going on about “plastics, la”.
My tolerance went, so I glassed him with my Chelsea tankard. True story.
Amyway, you get what I’m saying innit? He was convinced he was right, even when I’d showed him fact. His faith versus my scientific theory.
Basically what I’m saying is be thankful Woppit aint cut ya with his laminated copy of “The God Delusion”.
