And your latest little exchange ( the last comments ) shows that goading is the only game in town for the "evangelical" atheist, who's insincere questions remind me of those "seminar callers" who Rush Limbaugh used to swat away so amusingly. The "point" as always is to ridicule.

One revisits Alinsky: "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. There is no defense. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. Also it infuriates the opposition, who then react to your advantage."

Of course, he was incorrect, for the thin skinned are usually not prepared for "return fire."

One also still revisits Alinsky: "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag."

Such is it. Scorn throughout millennia is still just scorn.
