[QUOTE=badchad]  
there are those who it seems like me and those who don’t, (the latter group tends to accuse me of this that and whatever). When comparing these two groups it is pretty obvious to me that the disparaging group is disproportionately superstitious (by that I mean Christian/theist) as compared to the other group.

I am an athiest. I am of the opinion that belief in god is no more than a result of how an individual’s brain functions (see work done by Persinger). I am also of the belief that you are a troll who likes to push people’s buttons simply to get a rise out of them.

Are we taking a poll now?

I’m an atheist. I think badchad is recalcitrant, but I blame a lot of it on the wolfpack being constantly at his heels. I think you many of you are dealing with the monster you created and you continue to nurture and therefore you deserve. The more times I point it out and nobody notices, the less sympathy I feel for any of you.

I agree with you except the wolfpack wasn’t always at his heels. Plenty of posters, including myself, tried to engage him in real discussion only to discover his disingenuous shit slinging style. At this point I think we’re just venting because we’re sick of it. In GD I think refusing to let him have his way by just ignoring him is the best option. If he can stay on topic, and participate civilly then fine. If not then don’t waste any energy talking to someone who refuses to listen. I’ve noticed since his return he chooses to ignore certain posts and just cherry pick who and what he responds to. Pretty funny considering his arguments against Christianity.

I also think that he has learned a thing or two from being here but his ego won’t allow him to admit it. He claims he posts to fight ignorance and was surprised to discover his own.

The question of the OP appears to [lack a certain relevance](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/member.php), at this time.
