    1. >> By the way, to oppose homosexual activity is not bigoted. What
    is
    bigoted is for those who do oppose such, to be denied their
    freedoms.

    What "freedoms" are you talking about?


    Nominated portion:

    "Why the most cherished of all freedoms, of course:
    The freedom to persecute people we don't like."

    By Zayton
    Nominated by Don Martin
    Seconded by Harry F. Leopold


    2. In response to:

    Each person on earth has been given a mind and a free will.

    (Nominated quote)

    "How do you expect us to believe that when we read your posts?"

    By RL Measures
    Nominated by Dreamer in Colore
    Seconded by Captain Merca


    3. In response to:
    Why is it considered respectable for one to embrace unproven,
    unprovable theories and study them with enthusiasm but it is
    unthinkable for one to delve into a deep, thorough level of
    understanding of the information presented in the Bible. Gordon

    Many of the atheists on alt.atheism have done exactly that, Gordon.
    That's why we're atheists.

    By Sky Eyes
    Nominated by Les
    Seconded by Jeanne Douglas


    4. Personally, most of my regrets I have in life are tied into not
    sinning enough.

    By Malcolm McMahon
    Nominated by Dreamer in Colore
    Seconded by Jeanne Douglas


    5. We are not theist* if you please
    We are not theist if you don't please.

    Call us idiots
    Mock us
    sneer at us
    revile us
    lie about us
    misrepresents us
    plead with us
    hate us and show that hate
    'pray for' us
    'pray' at us
    Prey on us
    spit at us
    Piss on us
    Threaten violence
    Relish at thoughts of us 'burning in hell'

    but we will still not be theist if you please
    and we will still not be theist if you don't please.
