Subject: RACE for Gold
             Beijing Olympics 2008 has unveiled a marvel. Michael
Phelps - an atheist - has bagged 8 Gold medals. Surprisingly, not many
atheists seem to be comfortable with Phelps' achievement. This may be
because he has shattered a racist myth called "Gene Theory". After
evolution theory & Maxwell theory, "gene theory" looks like yet
another atheist delusion (or 'racist delusion' to be precise). By
using an arbitrarily chosen reference point, worthless racists try to
label themselves as THE BEST species on earth. Michael Phelps has
proved that to be a ridiculous assumption.

??? Really?

Uhm, do you mean social darwinism?  You know that has nothing to do
with atheism, right?

Yep, you're referring to Social Darwinism.

> Michael Phelps has
> proved that to be a ridiculous assumption.

I'm not sure how Phelps winning 8 gold medals proved that to be
ridiculous, especially considering that you claim that Phelps is an
atheist and that you seem to assume that atheists think they are elite
which would mean that Phelps winning 8 gold medals helps prove Social
Darwinism.  But regardless, very few people including atheists adhere
to Social Darwinism.

"Atheists without scientific temper" either become drunkards or chain

drinking ?

Least of all Charles Darwin, or Richard Dawkins for that matter, both
of which spoke vehemently against anything resembling "social
Darwinism". And again, eugenics dates back to ancient societies and
Plato. And, while we're at it, Hitler was a creationist.

"And, further, they ought to be brought to realize that it is their
bounden duty to give to the Almighty Creator beings such as He himself
made to His own image." -- Hitler

"Even a superficial glance is sufficient to show that all the
innumerable forms in which the life-urge of Nature manifests itself
are subject to a fundamental law--one may call it an iron law of
Nature--which compels the various species to keep within the definite
limits of their own life-forms when propagating and multiplying their
kind. Each animal mates only with one of its own species. The titmouse
cohabits only with the titmouse, the finch with the finch, the stork
with the stork, the field-mouse with the field-mouse, the house-mouse
with the house-mouse, the wolf with the she-wolf, etc." -- Hitler

"From where do we get the right to believe, that from the very
beginning Man was not what he is today? Looking at Nature tells us
that in the realm of plants and animals changes and developments
happen. But nowhere inside a kind shows such a development as the
breadth of the jump, as Man must supposedly have made, if he has
developed from an ape-like state to what he is today." -- Hitler

Large number of intellectuals are atheists & while opposing "Free
Will", most of them either support "gene theory" or they fail to
explicitly call that theory as plain rubbish.  That's the connection
between atheism & racism...

Wikipedia says ".The term (Social Darwinism)  was popularized in 1944
by the American historian Richard Hofstadter, and has generally been
used by critics rather than advocates of what the term is supposed to
represent."... Opposing "gene theory" on one hand & accepting GENES to
be the driving force behind performance is nothing but a plain
intellectual hypocrisy...

So, 1.You oppose "gene theory".
      2. You are an atheist &
      3. You are happy with Phelps' performance.
That's good.
About me : 1. I oppose "gene theory".
                 2. I am a theist &
                 3. I am happy with Phelps' performance.

Really?  Oh thats hella sweet news.  This is like the proof we
atheists needed to show that we atheists are THE BEST species on
earth.  A few more guys like him and we can totally go through with
are plans of genocide for the inferior theist race.
BWAHAHAHAHAAAA!

Which atheists are uncomfortable with Phelps' achievement?

I'm an atheist and I don't even know who is.

How did he shatter your myth? Since you're the only one I've heard saying
this I have to assume that it is Your myth.

What is "gene theory" and how is it atheist?

So far you're the only one I've heard say this.
