Going to break this stupidity in to manageable chunks.
#1 Nice avoiding of the rest of my post as usual.
#2 Just want to say you are a fucking retard again.
#3 A moron etc.. yes clearly all religious people are morons and stupid. I'm sure Obama (just one famous decently smart religious person) is a complete moron. Del Piero must be a moron too by your definition.
#4 Nice how you bring in the child element after you know my age Invisible friends? All your arguments just try to belittle.
#5 No I don't use it to validate my existence, I believe in God because I do. There is no harm in believing and living your life in a mostly good way. 99% of the time I'm not one to say bad stuff to people but you are literally the biggest fucking moron I've ever met in my life. I've really never met someone with such a skewed and deluded view of reality as you. I geniunely think you are a retard. Not just on religious views but your whole persona is just a mess, you really need to sort your life out. Take a look in the mirror please and just think if you are happy with yourself.
--------------------------------------------------
#1 The rest of your post was dirrected at someone else or i answered yesterday
#2 You're the Australian.
#3 How much celebrities believe in a faith or pretend due to public image is an interesting issue. The only openly atheist candidate we have had in the UK had one of the lowest vote counts and the UK is one of the most secular countries in the world.
#4 I disregard most things you say as I find more and more out about you and then use that stuff to wind you up when im bored. Just want to point this out AGAIN, I never had a problem with you - its you that started all of this bullshit with me and I still find it hillarious how wound up you get over nothing.
#5 You believe in god because you were told when you were young and now you've lived that lie, told to you by people who also believe that lie, for so long that for someone to challenge the logical falicy doesn't make sense to you.
Have you considered the followin - A, you don't get my sense of humour (Post modernism, Irony, Sarcasm), B, You don't understand my writing style - look up people like charlie brooker/ben goldacre (journalists i've read since I was about 16). C, I think exactly the same things about you?
I am really happy with my self, I look great, Im about to get my third degree, I have an amazing girlfriend etc. etc. And I got/achieved all of that because of work that I put in - not because an invisible force had a plan for me.

Why is accepting God’s existence so painful for many atheists? I would like to propose the following reasons:
1. Accepting God’s existence means accepting a God that permits worldwide suffering to occur on a daily basis, whether caused by other humans or by natural disasters. To some such a God is too painful to fathom, as it is painful to fathom that one’s parent may have done heinous actions.
2. Many feel betrayed by a God who they feel should have protected them and who instead allowed them to come close to extermination. I am referring to the Jews in particular. (52 % of Jews are either atheists or agnostics.)
3. Some are afraid of God -- the God of the Bible in particular. They have read and heard terrifying descriptions of hell, and they are horrified that they may be deserving of it, because of their sinful ways. Rather than mend their ways, they block out God’s reality -- and consequently hell.
4. Some are angry with God by association. They are upset with fellow believers who may have hurt them. They may be angry at a minister, or a priest who may have hurt or betrayed them. They may also be angry at the hypocrisy of many religious people and transfer their anger at God for allowing it all. They finally punish Him for allowing their pain and disappointment, and they do so by negating His existence.

I don't need to reply to any part of that because its written by someone that doesn't understand atheism.
"That which can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof"
That why atheists don't believe in god - theres no proof and we demand proof.

RATIONALIZATIONS: This is a favorite mechanism of atheists. It is simply the reliance on “logical-sounding” but false
reasons to negate reality. Atheists will offer countless “logical-sounding” reasons why God does not exist, or why they cannot accept the existence of God. They are very creative at doing so, and they specialize in using “pedantic” language to sound convincing to others and to themselves. They fool themselves that they are of "superior" intelligence and that they must be correct in their conclusions. In reality, they are simply

What do you want me to say to that? Theres no point being made there, it means nothing...
----------------------------------
"rationalizers."
Atheism is a mental illness because it is nothing more than a cry for attention. The truth is atheism is a false idea because it is based on the false premise that orderliness does not require intelligent direction.
Every argument with an atheist ends with this point. They can not overcome this one point, no matter how hard they try.

Atheism is a cry for attention?
Intelligent direction?
If you really think that your life is dictated by a higher power then you have really really really low self esteem. How is atheism a cry for attention?
