If you were able to take in anything I’ve said you wouldn’t have asked that, though you’ve made it abundantly clear that you don’t currently value the process of learning. I’ve never cast judgement on the theory you’ve chosen to call The Truth. Through everything I’ve said, you either refuse or can’t understand what I’ve clearly laid out. Your issue is blind acceptance of something you heard. Your arrogance and lack of actual knowledge told you that it sounds neat and makes sense at 30,000 feet so it’s Truth.
You go for personal attacks because you have nothing of value to retort or add. Your Knowledge was challenged and you reacted with anger and name calling because you can’t reasonably address anything I’ve said.
You and religious people have a lot more in common than you think. You all believe that you’ve found The Truth. Whether it’s Jesus or some theory you actually know practically nothing about, you’re drunk on feeling superior and think you comprehend the very nature of existence. There’s no real difference between you and any religious person because there’s as much hard evidence for one belief as the other. You believe there’s a difference because you chose to go all in on a theory as opposed to a god, and that makes you feel smug.
You’re a kid who doesn’t know much about anything, and you think you’ve got existence figured out. It would be laughable if it wasn’t so sad and common.
Hopefully you’ll grow out of this but there’s plenty of anecdotal evidence to suggest that may not be the case.
You’re the only one making personal attacks. I only expressed my concern that you are unwell. Like just read what you yourself wrote, it’s all right there.
I get that you feel like you have to “win” and that since facts and logic aren’t on your side you want me to feel upset which would give you some sort of moral victory. You try and change the topic away from you claiming your own god (predestination) in response to an atheism comic no less, to debating my mental health which could put me on the defensive and begin to get under my skin like I have to you.
It doesn’t work when you’re so transparent though. And even if it had, you’d still walk away knowing that some stranger poked a few holes in the latest belief structure that you were trying to use to make sense of your reality. That would be a fun challenge to an intellectual but just sucks for someone like yourself who wants to be right and feel smug.
There’s hope though. You don’t have to stay like this. As you get older and mature, your awareness can help you to become someone who’s interested in learning instead of being right. Then you could grow into a real intellectual thinker instead of cosplaying one.
You didn’t answer the only question: ‘what name calling?’
You may want to consider showing this thread to a friend or family member you trust and get their opinion of the interaction. I’m not at all trying to hurt your feelings or belittle you.

Stay in school, kid.
What name calling? What name?
