:::::::::::The uncouthe swearing, the [[Essay: 10 telltale signs you are on your way to becoming an atheist nerd|atheist community suffering a major nerd infestation]] and the lack of atheist dance music gives Indian Christian culture a hands down major victory over atheist "culture". I hope this does not cause you to become even more depressed (see: [[Atheism and depression]]). [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 22:25, 20 July 2011 (EDT)

Ok, let's break this down bit by bit:
:'''Conservative: '''There have been no obesity statistics given for Bible believing Christian Indians if you want precision on Indian Christians vs. Swedish atheists.'''
:Ok, but you have provided no statistics on Indian Christians (that's about 2% of the total population by the way), outside of 3 Youtube videos. All you do is make vague assertions with nothing to back them up. For that matter, where are your statistics on Swedish atheists?
:'''Conservative:'''Overall, India does stack up better than many Western nations though.'''
:On what basis? What Western nations have a caste system, Untouchables, child brides and arranged marriages, deliberate mutilation of children so they can beg, honor killings? Just what part of India stacks up against Western civilisation? I'm still waiting to hear your answer on that.
:'''Conservative:''' In addition, it appears as though the atheist community which has a major nerd infestation has not developed atheist dance music whereas Indian Christians have dance/music proving once again Indian Christian culture is superior.'''
:This is bizarre. How much "Indian Christian" dance music is there? And how exactly does that stack up against the multitude of Hindu dance songs out there? In addition, who on Earth is writing all the songs on the Billboard 100? Indian Christians? And as for Swedish atheists not writing dance music - I give you ABBA. One of the most successful dance groups ever. Do you seriously assert that atheists have no music? I ask you again - what is playing on the radio these days?
:'''Conservative:''' other stuff about the Welsh, charity, swearing, mass-murders.
:All of this is deflection. You have made an assertion that Indian culture (based on a flawed premise by yourself on 2% of the population) is better than Western culture. It is not, as much as you'd like it to. If it is, go and live in India and see how well you fare, compared to your current first world surroundings. And if you really think they're all sweetness and light and "namaste" - look up the Black Hole of Calcutta.
:It'll be interesting to see what new, irrelevant point you bring up, instead of simply admitting you've made a mistake in your assumptions. [[User:TracyS|TracyS]] 10:08, 21 July 2011 (EDT)
