You start thread after thread attacking atheists for their intelligence, personalities, thoughts, maturity, etc and then you play the innocent - as if you're just exploring the different aspects of people's minds - and you expect people to just go along with you out of the kindness of their hearts?
Here's one back at ya: I didn't call you a religious zealot. I'm just asking questions. (wide-eyed innocent emoticon here)
Sorry, I'm not buying your shtick.
You hate atheists. We get it. I really don't care if you hate us or not. But I do want to let you know that we're not buying.

since you now openly state your disposition, walk the walk and show others of the Atheists enlightenment.
we all set examples indirectly or not you know....

no it could be perceived as a statement, I guess it is all how one looks at it... there is a question mark at the end of the question though. Sometimes the best answer is a simple yes or no.
the question was very relevant, you can keep Darwin but Einstein is a man of respect and humility.
of course you mean the World right ? there is not much reference, if I am not mistaken in most religious dialogue about the actual Universe.
Most atheists are just as nice as most people in any other group of people. We're also statistically less likely to commit crimes and more likely to maintain stable marriages.
mkay, maybe that is off line or in some fantasy world which does not exist except in the mind of the true atheist.
Don't stereotype a group of people.
just making a general observation of what I have seen over my years on the internet.
In my opinion and the overwhelming observations made by others,
Atheist are quite the fundamentalist and usually exhibit more of these tendencies than a person or peoples who have chosen a God and decide to dedicate their life to... well... life and love instead of hate and belittlement.
most Atheist are extremely arrogant and imo also they need humility and respect if that group ever wants other normal people to take them seriously.
They just are not doing a very good job of convincing people and in fact are doing the exact opposite and pushing people away from their group of self worship.
I have to give it to them though... since they think they can usher in a new humanity where people inherently have respect for eachother ect, ect, but of course this said 'group' can not take it back far enough to figure out where they got these morals from they so covet in the first place.
I also have a tendency to believe Atheist have a lower IQ
and lack vision and are unwilling to communicate or accept anyone who does not conform to their system of belief.

I have no desire to convince other people that atheism is the way they should go. I have no need to "show others" any kind of enlightenment. When I say I don't care, I mean I don't care. I don't care what other people believe or don't believe. To each his own. I respect other people and their freedom to have, practice and celebrate their religion and beliefs. Why would I insist that they think the same way I do?
I think I just did.

Your Christianity is purely a product of the time and place you were born
So why do you not feel the need to do these things but you expect others to feel the need to worship your particular god of choice

Well, with you it's already obvious by your post history.

are Atheists trapped in the same arrogant behavior that fundamentalist wackos perform ?

The truth is, most atheists are not nice, especially those that are active on the Internet...

And what has being in a minority got to do with your original post as to weather Atheists are arrogant or not?
Do you even have a point anymore or have you just moved onto to pure troll
So you've switched your point to Atheists are in a minority now have you?
Care to actually answer the questions rather the cover up your ignorance with hyperbole, goal post moving and insults?

Certainly some atheists are arrogant just as some religious folks are. Arrogance isn't a trait that is dependent upon holding a certain belief. In many ways the current stereotypical angry arrogant atheist is just an equal and opposite reaction to the resurgent and supremely vocal wave of Fundamentalism in religion.
The truth is you should not generalize an entire group of people. In general most atheists I've talked to are nice and the only time they
The fact remains that there are jerks and nice people on either side of the religious coin.

...Can I resume my topic now please
In my opinion, today... Atheist are still arrogant.
There is no reasoning with an Atheist, they only want you to see things their way, they have never heard of 'live and let live' either.
I have been able to ascertain the level of IQ most atheist must have just by the way they look when you do an image search on Google...
Yes folks these are the people walking around with a bone in their nose like cavemen, though they call it a nose ring and the one down below is a Prince Albert...
IMO most of them look like they have been run over by a truck and I almost get sick when see the tracks on their arms.
But these kids (mostly) are very smart for the most part and are oh so kind to others, as we have all seen.
Atheism in my opinion is a scourge, one could even consider it a disease...
When Atheist learn to play well with others and not be so dictatorial on the playground (the Internet) then others may begin to take them seriously... Atheist do not care about anyone but themselves as I have seen.
I would like to meet one that could change my outlook about Atheism in general.
please oblige me so I do not begin to think everyone with a bone in their nose is arrogant/ignorant and self-centered. Then I may actually believe some of them may have an IQ over 85.
