I'm sure it'll come as no surprise that I like to lurk in forums such as the ones over at RichardDawkins.net or Infidels.org. What annoys me is that some fellow atheists, especially on the Infidels forums, like to call the bible "babble" or god "gawd". This just seems childish to me. It's no different than fundamentalists calling evolution "evilution".Imagine for a moment that you're a religious person (perhaps you used to be). You think that atheists are arrogant, but want to discuss some things with them to see if that's really true, to ask questions, etc. And then you come about a forum that has atheists saying things like "The babble is no evidence for gawd or jebus". I don't know about you, but that childish spelling would turn me off from the start. Hell, it does that to me now and I'm not religious in the least.
Grow up, please. "Babble", "Gawd", "Jebus", etc is just embarrasing.
