but that's like saying "Let's narrow down the argument about the existence of the Easter Bunny"

The point is: “let's narrow down the argument”.

you obviously place faith or interest in the existence of a god

As a matter of fact, I do.

my point is that gods and tooth fairies and bunnnies are all in the same category...and hardly worth the effort.

Okay, let's NOT debate it then!

The pertinent discussing would still be WHY they think a big Rabbit gives them the right to do what they do to children and the rest of us.

Okay, we debate THAT then!

god isn't the issue, or shouldn't be.

Okay, if that's not the issue, then let's NOT debate it!

II – The Problem of Evil: (If God exists, then He wouldn't allow evil to befall upon the innocent).

How come? Some atheists say “there's no God BECAUSE if there is, then there wouldn't be evil”. And THAT is what they call: “The Problem of Evil”.

http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/evil/

there is no problem with the existence of rattlesnakes either...they exist. They are not a "mistake"...we don;t have to kill all sharks because every so often one of them eats human. There is nothing "wrong" with humans...they are this way and that...good and bad. That's the way we are...education can influence us for better or worse, but we are not a "problem".

What are you talking about?

Okay, if you don't want to debate that, then let's NOT debate it!

How can atheism be unpure?

but if it's just another "belief", then what's the point.

Atheism as an another belief? You are gong to give me nervous breakdown.

There is no reason to believe in a god....none.

Okay, let's NOT debate God then!
