you must think we're all very stupid.
I have posted articles that stated opinions that ran contrary to mine more than once.

Yes, the atheists numbers are not the only reason I posted it, I have already stated it... that you could not read that for yourself.... well, yes, that is pretty stupid.

would you mind pointing one of those out?

also, i DID see where you thought the pct of spiritual/not religious count was high...i just thought you were lying. i can read very well....i also have a very good memory. and furthermore.....what is it with you and the accusing people of not reading? is it inconcievable to you that some people may ignore parts of your posts because they dont ring true....or maybe.....just maybe......communication requires accurate expression of a point just as much as it does accurate interpretation? The repetetive condescending tones coming from you are obviously causing a large amount of blowback. change. you're doing it wrong. you.

The others are only small because the atheist is so big, which was the result of a bunch of atheist-friendly (including Pharyngula, where I saw it) websites passing the link around for fun. You can (and I did) even vote multiple times without even clearing your cookies. It's sorta funny, especially if Larry mentioned it on his show, but it's not indicative of anything much.

Well, maybe, but it's tied with all other web polls.

So you're saying atheists are not intelligent, since they watch Larry King? That is not kind. I know some bright atheists.

Our fine board owner for one. Wow...he thinks Undertoad is not intelligent! Well, that stupid son of a bitch! UT may be a bit dim at times, but he oozes intelligence out of his pores...you can even smell it at times!

The following was completely in jest except for the following: 1)To my knowledge, UT is an atheist, or at least an agnostic, IIRC. 2)UT oozes intelligence.

No, only the ones that go to King's website.
I suspect that's a pretty small sampling of people that watch his shows.

Thanks man, and as far as the smelling it goes, that's true too - I had lentil soup and a burrito yesterday, and boy howdy.

It is silly and your games are tiring .
Look through my threads yourself.
How about this one... I don't like Larry King, he is an idiot, cannot interview the most interesting person and has never been worth watching.
I posted two points of view on the use of certain words on a recent thread.
You don't like me, boo-hoo bitch.
What is funny is that you are far more guilty of everything you accuse me of, which is why it bothers you so much.
