I am an at-rapist. That is, I believe that the crime of rape doesn't exist. Of course, the first part of any discussion is to get the definitions straight. My small-minded debunkers will be quick to shout loud and long that in fact there is a law against rape, and therefore rape is a crime. But of course my definition of crime is not related to official law (otherwise my argument would be self-defeating because there does exist at least one country where rape is illegal), but rather to a more natural human law. I define crime as an action that when performed is rational to enforce punishment as a deterrent for the health and happiness of society in general. Rape is defined simply as forcing someone to have sex.

It seems in the modern age that there are an overwhelming majority of t-rapists in our country, that is, those who believe rape is a crime in the sense I defined it. As such I am constantly called into question about why I believe what I do and also to justify my diligence in converting people to my believe system.

I'll answer the latter first. I am justified by the supreme amount of suffering and death caused by the beliefs of the t-rapists thought-out history. Children are indoctrinated with the belief at a very early age that forcing someone to have sex with you is extremely wrong and traumatizing. Rape is one of the truly worst crimes, as espoused by the t-rapists, and they demand swift and brutal justice to any trespasser. This system is built into members of society at a very young age, and forcing this belief on people is completely amoral. Believing rape is such a horrible crime has caused hundreds of thousands of rapists to be either killed or imprisoned for inhumane amounts of time. Not only that, but having this irrational belief permeated throughout society - especially to children at such young ages - causes the victims to not only feel the slight discomfort they would normally feel during a rape, but also to believe that they truly are traumatized! Everyone suffers under this belief system! Not to mention the countries in the Middle East, where the rape 'victim' is actually slaughtered! I put victim in quotes because everyone is a victim of the t-rapists belief system: rapists, rape victims, family and friends of rape victims. They are all led to believe rape is such a horrible crime.

Which brings me to my answer to the former point above: why do I believe what I do? Well, I believe what I do simply because there is no evidence pointing to the t-rapist's belief system: it is simply irrational. There is certainly insufficient evidence to suppose that actually creating this society of rapist haters causes humanity in general to be happier. There have been no scientific or repeatable experiments to show that building such a society with such an indoctrinated belief system is actually healthier and happier in the long run, and therefore I assert that punishing rape as such a crime is completely irrational. Oh there are plenty of arguments from my common debunkers talking about the 'feelings' and 'emotions'. Many t-rapists believe it's a crime simply because they feel in their hearts that it is so, and I've already discussed why this is such a dangerous belief to hold.

No, this belief that rape is a crime is simply a relic of the old world, when people thought the smallest element was a billiard ball looking atom and the only way to fly was in a hot air balloon. It is time for the people of this age to let go of all their dangerous and harmful beliefs not supported by scientific fact.

Maybe I'm missing something about the distinctions between t-rape & at-rape or just rape, but What does this have to do with the exisitence of God(s)?

I gather Xeno is a man, with no sisters, and no experience with crime victims.

I'm stumped. I'm looking for some sort of symbolism here, maybe a statement regarding theism vs non-theism.

Otherwise, this person scares me.

The whole at- and t- threw me from the beginning.

There'd be a point to that post if belief in God were prescriptive, and not descriptive. It'd still be flawed on multiple counts, but at least there'd be some basis for comparison.

Hi Xeno. What does this have to do with the existence of God? I'm stumped. I tried looking for some sort of symbolism but I couldn't find any. Anyway, it's definitely an odd idea.

I'm a gnat-rapist.

Cheers.

I think I sort of understand what Xeno has just posted. Maybe the at-rapists represent atheists and the t-rapists represent theists?

Is this correct?
