I'm an atheist. To me, your "god" is no more capable of lying than it is riding a bicycle.

I am an anti-you-ist. I don't believe you exist. Your response must just be some kind of random creation of chance. So If I call you a liar, it doesn't matter because I don't believe in you right? Oh, wait, that isn't exactly how it works is it.

I'm full aware that others believe any number of things. People delude themselves with all manner of religious club rites intended at making themselves feel better about unanswerably doing whatever they please without any real guilt or responsibility. I understand, I just don't care that others believe other things. If 2+2=4, I'm not going to sit and worry that others believe it equals 5,6, 10, or a million. Dispelling ignorance requires that they either come to know that 4 is the sum, or that they have access to that knowledge if I'm around to share it. Beyond that, they're responsible for themselves to answer to God for their actions and beliefs. The issue at hand is whether Darwinism or scripture are mutually exclusive and you're way off the beaten path trying to handwring.

What do you mean when you say "you"?

Okay. You have an observed phenomenon for producing posts on FR, but you'd rather assume that some other phenomenon that has never been observed is responsible. That's bizarre, but if you want to believe it, then so be it.

So If I call you a liar, it doesn't matter because I don't believe in you right?

No, it doesn't matter because you're clearly delusional and more than happy to push strawman arguments rather than rational arguments.

Oh, wait, that isn't exactly how it works is it.

No, that isn't. That's why what you presented was a "faulty analogy".

I understand, I just don't care that others believe other things.

In other words, the fact that you are wrong doesn't change your proclamation that you are right.

You assert absolute knowledge that you are right and that anyone who disagrees with your interpretation of reality in the slightest is completely and utterly wrong. To me, that's the height of arrogance.
