I never stereotyped you as anything.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood what you were attributing to me. But considering you wrote "re: Someone. <new line> Perhaps." and immediately after (with no new paragraph) starting discussing these things I think you can understand why I thought you were attributing them to me.

Your false premise was what I thought you were implying with this:
According to "The Economist Intelligence Unit’s Quality-of-Life Index" as of 2007, the countries with the highest quality of life are: Ireland, Switzerland and Norway. The predominant system of beliefs are: Catholicism, Catholicism and Lutheranism, respectively.

"I won't even start on the factuality of evolution at this point."
What does evolution have to do with anything?

"Once again, you're misconstruing my words to suit your' own agenda."
I'm not quite sure what my agenda here is. Honestly.

Under no circumstances are a bunch of links posted on TDN "empirical facts".
The links were not empirical facts. The empirical fact is that there is an inverse relationship between how religious a country is and its quality of life. I don't care about anything else written on those pages besides the description of the surveys that show this. This has nothing to do with the infallibility of the Bible either.

Ahhh, the personal attacks. So classy - you should be a politician
I'm sorry if what I wrote sounded like a personal attack. I just can't read something like "It's adherents are predominantly the scum and outcasts of society (Bitter, angry individuals who accuse gods/religion/austerity for all their' faults and failings.)" without getting the opinion of someone has not been exposed to too many atheists and atheistic thought. Your view of atheists is patently prejudiced and just plain absurd.
