I Am An Atheist

An unbelieving man once encountered a Christian & questioned him; "who created God?". The Christian answered truthfully; "No one created God. He is eternal; He has no beginning and has no end.". The unbelieving man counted His words ludicrous and ridiculed him away, but the christian called him back & spoke; " you have asked, 'who created God', and I have answered you truthfully yet you scorn me. God created the human mind so do not expect that you will be able to grasp even the a fraction of a quarter of His being. And if I chose to lie to you instead, saying "yes, God was created", you would go on again and ask, "who created the being who created God?"; and if I were to go on again & answer that to your expectation, you would ask even further, "who created the being whom created the being whom created the being whom created God?"; and then I shall answer that to your expectation, and on and on and on, we would continue, until we shall both die. And when in death, shall your knowledge profit your soul in anyway, saving it from hell? - since your biased heart sought after knowledge rather than life eternal instead - and have I not so much as damned my soul to hell too in that I sought to please your ears, telling you lies?

Indeed there is knowledge abundant, but in knowledge there is right and wrong knowledge, in that only one is profitable for the soul. Seek it with wisdom."

Major smh.

You, my dear ma'am, are in your late forties - if not your early fifties - and ought to be well aware that the word 'ignorant' is EITHER of a descriptive and insulting word, and not just an insulting word, as termed by the majority today. Same also applies to the words 'imbecile', 'bastard', 'handicapped', and many more.
(Again, MAJOR smh)

Decades ago - your teen years or even younger than that - the word 'ignorant' - & its affiliating words - was addressed most as a descriptive term than as a derogatory term, but as time flew, the scales were switched, in that 'ignorant' is now regarded to mostly as a slur than description; but nonetheless, it still is held by BOTH definitions.

FOR EXAMPLE
"Junior hit Sasha upon opening the door. He was ignorant of her standing behind it; he had no knowledge of this". As you see there, ma'am, the word 'ignorant' is used in stating that Junior did not know that Sasha was behind the door, NOT AS AN INSULT TO HIM (OR HIS INTELLECT)

"You mundane individual of lowest than low standards; ignorant buffoon!". Now in that, my dear ma'am, the word 'ignorant' is used as an insult.

I hope you've come to understand the difference. To define a word such as 'ignorant', as to whether it is used for debasing purposes or not, the context of the write-up/text body surrounding it is to be referred to.

.

What you suppose is my failure to refute your observation is actually a personal decision to not continue this dialogue of a 'dog-tail cycle' anymore. It is quite evident - your bias, favoritism, and close - mindedness (AND THAT IS NO INSULTING YOU, AS YOU HAVE COME TO THINK AGAIN THAT I HAVE) - but you object to it. I shall leave you to your peace.

Also, ma'am, do come to know this; I would never direspect you - nor everyone even. If I were to ever do such, I would do well to apologise upon realising I did do so. If I can not love my fellow person, it would be falsity from me to claim to love Christ & to have the love of Christ in me. I am nome of such.

God bless you,ma'am. Take care.
