If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck... it might be a duck. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] EatMyPixelDust@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 4 months ago* (1 child) That doesn't make atheism a religion, nor does atheism call for the persecution of anyone. Your logic is flawed and your argument is factually incorrect. All ducks have legs, but not all birds with legs are ducks. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Bad_Ideas_In_Bulk@lemmy.world 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) A muscovy duck isn't a duck. Technically. But if someone complains about all the misbehaving ducks in the pond and your defense for your duck's musbehaviour is "technically not a duck!" you're not really saying anything of worth. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] EatMyPixelDust@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 point 4 months ago (1 child) I can only infer from your statement that "Muscovy ducks aren't technically ducks" which you've followed up by stating "anyone who says technically not a duck isn't saying anything worthwhile", means you're telling me what you're saying isn't anything of worth.

You "Um Actually"-ed my post about the moral behavior of atheists who get religious about atheism.
