The sudden change of the thread name only goes to show ... well... I'll not say it. What a waste of time this guy has been for us all.

Quit crying and get over it. Sudden change? One word was added to the title. So put up or shut up.

One word can often change the meaning entirely.

By the way, if there are any "new atheism" prophets, they are still alive.

Many of Dawkins' speeches are extremely thought-provoking.

Here's a good one:

Ok so you take him as your type of "prophet". Now we can start comparing between prophets. Dawkins' polemics against religion are ridiculous. Muhammad pbuh, the example for all religious Muslims, through his actions in life seems to be a far better and thought provoking example. What has Dawkin's brand of New Atheism produced?

Pygo, you gota think. You're on an Islamic forum and sometimes, people think they've wasted time on others too.

Islamic forum or not, the point is a fair one. 'One word' or not, AKK has completely changed his own topic seven or so pages in having, he claims, suddenly been blessed with a belated insight as to what it actually was he meant to talk about in the first place. That seems to amount to the utterly staggering non-claim that Mohammed has had a bigger impact on the history of civilization than Richard Dawkins. I'm sure even Dawkins would happily concede that one.

Many people have taken the time and effort to reply to what the thread was originally about before AKK changed his mind, and their time has indeed been completely wasted.

I simply provided a more narrow definition of the atheism I was talking about. Further, instead of wasting your posts on personal insults you could have asked for more clarification about what I was talking about.

And "many people"? I see the same 3 atheists replying for most of the thread. And now even after I have clarified, you insist on twisting my position. I said that they characters were not comparable which is strange thing for New Atheists who claim religion breeds only chaos or evil which if you had the sense to match your arrogant posts, you would have seen.

I'm sure you'll ignore the bulk of this post also. But believe it or now, my posts are not made for the benefit of your time. I had a question and created a topic. So get real.
 
A mod might as well close this thread because it has devolved into a bunch of people throwing insults at each other for ridiculous reasons.

People complaining about "wasted time" should get it through their thick skulls that topics are sometimes created to answer the questions of the TC.

So Pygo and Trumble, plug it because the only thing this thread had taught me is that not only is atheism not a unified body of thought (like you have been barking about), but it sometimes spawns uncivilized and juvenile cretins who are possibly more full of **** than they are with themselves an probably lost their manners with their faith.

You two can fill that in yourselves. Insults are the only thing you're good for.
