"I have no truck with atheists Master."
"Indeed, why do you say that?"
"I found that atheists surpass the unsurpassable barrier of scientific thought of which you made us aware Master. No matter who passes this barrier deliberately, whether believer or unbeliever, he is then a crank."
"I cannot but agree with you. Explain further."
"Until the question: 'is/not-is', has been satisfactorily settled with regard to sperrits, gods etc. , the barrier for further opinions is closed. Yet I found that atheists too, like the believers, purport to know a lot about why there is no god."
"It might be as you say, but I think there is a different reason for your dislike."
"Is there Master?"
"It is the fact that the typical atheist or humanist gets into a temper ONLY on encountering a superstitious sperritology, a theology or theogony, but not when encountering any other superstitions like Democrazy and so forth. It would be far more consistent and Natural, of the Way, if he, like we do, had a measure of contempt for ALL stupidity. While we loathe passports, and nationalism, anthems, flags, the calendar and clock system, decimal calculation, the 360 digit geometry, AND superstitious sperrits, they accept all without protest, and only fire at the last. That is the cause of your dislike. No consistency! When you are a Free-Thinker, ou also protest against the stupid weekend, Democrazy, Might = Right, etc. "
