   Where did you demonstrate it outside your deluded fantasies before   
   rudely and stupidly presuming it outside your religion, for it to do   
   anything at all?

   What kind of narcissistic retard cites what to his audience are merely   
   the fairies of somebody else's religion, as proof of anything?

   Why do you feel the need to lie about atheists, to atheists, instead   
   of first demonstrating that your pretend friend is as real to them as   
   it is to you?   
      
   Is it your purpose in life to tell thinking people that you are a   
   mindless retard?
