Of course we are
but then, we chose to be cunts of our own volition. We didn't need a beardy sky wizard to dictate what type of cuntery is best for us.

in the course of a justification of atheism
you kind of do, really.

why would you need to justify not believing in something?

you do if you want to convince someone who does believe not to.

I don't NEED to justify anything
In this case, I would be choosing to.

However, in this case, I didn't justify anything at all. I just made a statement, pointing out a difference between an atheist and a theist, which any fucking fool knows anyway.

Do you know, I'm starting to think that the words I type and see are different from whatever you lot see.

it's therefore improved by, well, y'know, having something to compare with.

Jesus, you lot are getting hard work. You're worse than some of my students.
