Tom: so dawkins says, "so your taking these peoples money and keeping it"?
Tom: he goes to this little old lady, and gets real close and asked why she beleived
Me: mm
Tom:and then when she answered, he got closer and said that her reason was wrong
Tom: hes just rude
Tom: i dont care if you dont believe, but keep it to yourself
Me: what a jackass
Tom: he wants atheists to stop tolerating the people who believe, he things they are too tolerant
