 In a deposition submitted under oath, Fredric Rice said:
 FR> I've been utterly unable to find even ___ONE___ atheist hate
 FR> group.
 bs> How about Russian Communism under Stalin,
 FR> No, that won't work since Communism is a political ideology (and we're
 FR> looking for an atheist-based hate group, don't forget.
    Oh, I'm *so* surprised you wouldn't accept it, weaseling out of it
 by trying to add some qualifier you didn't mention before, even if that
 qualifier *is* irrelevant to your criteria.  Take a look at your
 wording in the first line: you typed "atheist hate group."  The
 Communists were/are a group of atheists, and their words and actions
 were filled with hatred and murder of theists and capitalists alike.
    You can never take politics out of the equation.  Politics is just
 another tool, used by all your so-called "Christian" hate groups as
 well as Communist, atheist hate groups.  In fact, it is a tool used by
 all groups.
 bs> or Chinese Communism under Chairman Mao Tse Dong?
 FR> No, you're still not focused, Bob.  We're looking for atheist-based
 FR> hate groups, not political parties.
    So, a political party can't be atheist-based, nor a hate group?
 FR> What you're experiencing is desperation while "on a fishing trip."
    What you are experiencing is desperation due to your errant
 position.  I presented two atheist hate groups, and you're desperate to
 find a way to exclude them, because that makes your atheism less
 perfect, what with your pals Stalin and Mao on your side.
 FR> I can't say that I blame you for your attempt at dishonesty.
    I might have been comforted, had I been dishonest.  It's your own
 dishonesty you should be concerned with.  Your fundamentalism is so
 stereotypical.
 FR> Were I a cultist I would probably do the same thing.
    I'm a cultist?  Hmm.  That's news to me.  Speaking of fishing trips,
 it looks like you're casting about with your own fishing line.  It
 would help were you to find the right pond.
 FR> Oh:  Yet another Christian hate group made it to my list yesterday. 
 FR> The Boy Scouts of America.  Imagine the intolerant bigots who won't
 FR> allow atheists or homosexuals into their club. It's ironic.
    Yeah, imagine a private club that sets limits on their membership.
 How dare they exercise their American freedom!
    Clean the jism off your monitor, Rice.  You're getting much too
 excited about the Boy Scouts.
 FR> Everyone knows that atheists are far more moral, ethical, and
    Morality which is based on what?
 FR> densities Chairman Mao and Pol Pot had access to.  And Christianity
 FR> would have done better in America if it weren't for that annoying Bill
 FR> of Rights thing Americans used to successfully defang the cult.
    You mean that same Bill of Rights you're trying to deny the Boy
 Scouts of America?
    So, are you ever actually going to talk about philosophy in this
 echo, or are you trying to turn this into an annex of lowlystroke^W
 holysmoke?
    Auscultare...
... When the clue salesman knocks at your door, let him in.
