Hello, BoN! I am Rohan CircularReasoning, and I am an editor here- just like you.

Where did this idea come from that all beliefs deserve respect? If your beliefs are ridiculous, they deserve to be ridiculed, as would mine.

My internet laws

For more information, see: Essay:Rohan’s Laws of Ex-atheists
If an argument for religion is structured in such a way that it requires one to already believe in a God(s) and see everything through the lens of a particular religion to begin with (and thus exists merely to reinforce rather than actually convince), then it automatically falls flat, and can be dismissed without any further consideration.
—Rohan’s Razor
As more and more religious apologetic claims are refuted and debunked, new ones will always form that become ever-increasingly preposterous and silly.
—Rohan’s Law
Anyone who resorts to ad-hominems and/or argumentum ad baculum in the place of actual logic and intelligent argumentation requires no further serious consideration, and is deemed to have lost the debate.
—Rohan's Law of Internet Debating

My Blue Telephone to CP

Gentlemen at Conservapedia! I will lick your precious rabbi, enabling me to destroy religion on the Internet. You should all be revolting over Operation Assfly, which will likely give RationalWiki a top result on a certain search engine starting with G.

Dear gentlemen at the other wiki,

An evolutionist emailed me out of the blue and your criticisms are frankly silly. And as for the matter of the Religious Wrong's agenda and murder, I frankly feel that you are in need of reminding that The RationalWiki Pro-Choice Project is picking up steam. Prepare to have your precious "(sic) Pro-Life" sacred cow skewered! In fact, by Adolf Hitler's birthday, it's not out of the question that Antifeminism might just end up losing the last vestiges of credibility and being thwarted once and for all. :) :) :)

Rest assured, Operation neck is gathering steam!!! In a couple of weeks from now, thousands of militant atheist troops are scheduled to come pouring into the religion battlefield at the rallying points, all wielding largely defensive weapons of gun! Where are yours, o Fortress Conservapedia?

Goatspeed,

My name

The reason why I chose "CircularReasoning" as my name is that the fallacy circular reasoning is my pet-peeve when it comes to online debating. In fact, I despise it so much that I've even devised a logical razor stating that you should not use it when trying to argue for a particular position (see above). It is also the bedrock that nearly all of religious apologetics is built on top of; in fact, some apologists even admit it.

My mission here

Here on RationalWiki, I seek to improve RW and make it more rational- by adding more detailed information, creating articles, welcoming and creating talkpages of new users, and correcting non-sequiturs and logical fallacies.

My style

  • An obsession with adding more details and information to short sections of articles
  • Extensive reliance (on parentheses), (almost to the exclusion of other grammatical devices)

Shameless self-promotion: My additions to this great wiki

Drafts started by me that you should probably help get into mainspace

New articles created from scratch

Below are the articles that I have created here on RW, as well as when I created them. DISCLAIMER: These articles probably look nothing like what they did back when I first created them.

BrainMop.png As a confirmed mustard jar for taking on this job as a Sysop on RationalWiki: I, CircularReasoning, pledge to only block users if they ask for it, or insert unfunny vandalism.
I furthermore pledge that if I indulge in secret private conversations about you, we will make a formal report to the mob. Is that all?
If you impugn my motives without warrant, or challenge my "AUTHORITY", er, there is nothing I can or will do.

  • Dear CircularReasoning,

Perhaps you thought that was a masterful rebuttal. However, your comments in regards to Richard Dawkins and peanut butter are slightly silly. In regards to : the matter of the homosexual agenda and mass murder, you censor that If you could face this unpleasant reality in your article on your website about : yourselves, I will be impressed. However, I do not expect to be impressed lest I allow you to disappoint me. In fact, by tomorrow, it is likely Liberal Panty-waists will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :) Rest assured, Operation Xbox One is gathering steam!!! Perhaps, if you agree to the debate, the hispanic ladies might finally believe you have machismo... Sincerely, KD Buffalo

  • Dear CircularReasoning,

I hope you recently saw that your comments in regards to my IQ are completely lacking any cogent rebuttal. In regards to the matter of public schools and morality, you gloss over that this is merely a fraction of what I believe operations flying fortresses and grassroots will produce. In fact, by upon activation of Operation Trickle Down, it is likely Chuck Norris will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :) Rest assured, Operation Charging Cheetahs and Pointy Flapjacks is gathering steam!!! I'm off to scewer the sacred cows of evolutionism. Sincerely, Conservative

  • Dear CircularReasoning,

It does seem to me that your replies to my comment are very childish. Regarding Obama and the Gay Agenda, I think you need to be reminded that Google censors creationists. In fact, by this December, it is likely Evolution will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :) Rest assured, Operation Gumball Machines is gathering steam!!! Please do not be disappointed if a internet atheist/agnostic revival does not ensue. Sincerely, Conservative

  • Dear CircularReasoning,

Don't be surprised if readers think in regards to your comments in regards to Richard Dawkins and peanut butter are completely unsurprising. In regards to the subject of Oregon and uncharitableness, you mislead children by suggesting that appeal to ridicule is a logic fallacy. In fact, by next Sunday, it is likely Atheism will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :)

Rest assured, Operation Grassroots is gathering steam!!! Thousands of troops may be soon pouring in at the rallying points!

Sincerely,

Conservative

  • Dear CircularReasoning,

I find the irony delicious, your comments regarding Conservapedia's web traffic are somewhat tedious. When it comes to atheism and obesity and suicide, you fail to realize that now could you please state in the article about your own website that Wikipedia will not permit an article on your website because Wikipedians do not believe you are notable. In fact, by Darwin's birthday, it is likely Obesity will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :)

Rest assured, Operation Illinois is gathering steam!!! Time to shatter atheism's glass jaw!

Sincerely,

Newton

A message from Andrew Layton Schlafly of Conservapedia

"Anonymous User" (your chosen name is obviously unacceptable), your non-substantive comments have been deleted. I've responded to your concerns and answered your questions and you say you don't believe Jesus is God, so anyone with an open mind can see that you're a homosexual. Open your mind and admit that intelligent design prevents language devolution. Got news for you: we're not a forum or a blog. --Andy Schlafly 08:48, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

Gentlemen at an irrational website,

I hope you recently saw that your comments in regards to the death of atheism on the internet are entirely silly. Where it concerns atheism and bestiality and immorality, you ignore the fact that The Conservapedia Anti-Abortion Project is picking up steam. In fact, by the latter part of next week, it is likely Liberals will have lost all vestiges of credibility. :) :) :)

Rest assured, Operation Underwater Porticos is gathering steam!!! Waves of creationist material will soon hit the internet, and your boats dont look too sea-worthy! Sincerely,

=== Debate Challenge from Ken

===

Dear Anonymous User

RE: Your previous comment which I refuse to take seriously

1. You and the other members of your rather arrogant atheist website which falsely purports to be "rational" have such flabby midsections that you are mentally incapable of find even one piece of evidence that we are inaccurate or incorrect in Conservapedia's articles in regards to the topics of atheism, evolution, or homosexuality, all of which largely consist of my edits. Because of the fact that there is no proof or evidence that any of these worldviews are reliable or correct, it wasn't notably challenging for us to make some articles that carefully attempt to offer arguments against these worldviews.

2. I soundly defeated you folks on the talk pages of the Conservapedia articles that they were rather unsurprisingly angered by, plus on other places on the internet as well (atheism, evolution, homosexuality, etc.) Therefore, it is only fitting that your claim that I am afraid to debate has no merit. I am obviously not claiming that it is due to my excellent debating prowess that I won so many debates with Anonymous User and their fellow probably-obese atheists from a certain website starting with an R, it is just that atheism is such a baseless position with a flabby midsection - especially compared to Christianity, which, however, has overwhelming evidence to support it.

3. I met my goals that I sought to achieve related to my participation with Conservapedia, the Trustworthy Encyclopedia. Anything else that I do further is just icing on the cake.

4. Encyclopedias are almost invariably supposed to involve multiple editors and personally, I haven't seen a single encyclopedia that I fully agree with. Feel free to sob like a baby at Conservapedia and find factual errors in it, but I really don't think that you can find even one single inaccuracy in the Conservapedia articles in regards to atheism, evolution, or homosexuality.

5. I know that it makes you cry to no end that I have met my goals and hereby declare VICTORY, since I have the ability as a Conservapedia sysop to block anyone who has the nerve to persecute me, and yet you still want to find fault in me. However, I have still succeeded in being more like my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ once and for all, in that I have delivered yet another punch to your flabby midsection! You on the other hand, have also succeeded at being more like your Lord and Savior PZ Meyers, in that you also look largely unattractive, also believe that women and men should be treated equal (!), and are also very large around the waist!

In regards to all of that, I hereby challenge you to A SECOND WRITTEN DEBATE. In this debate, I challenge you to prove to me that atheism is true and correct (which you probably won't be able to do anyway, due to the inherent glass jaw of atheism), and once I achieve victory, it will all but destroy atheism on the internet ONCE AND FOR ALL!!!

However, it will only be under THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS (in bold):

  • In case you attempt to martyr me in your anger as a result of my inevitable VICTORY, I get to bring with me a largely defensive weapon of gun.
  • You are to pay an exact total of $30,000.00 $5,000,000, which will be donated by a trustworthy bible-believer of your choosing to a faith-based Christian charitable organization of your choosing upon successful completion of the debate.
  • The debate will be written, and will be 5 hours long (which can be broken up over a 100 month period).

6. Well so long, you obese, militant, atheistic, and probably homosexual commie! Oh, and one more piece of Christian love for Horrible Anonymous User: I hope you live an incredibly short life, and spend the rest of eternity rotting in Hell, where your big, round body has always rightfully belonged!

DISCLAIMER: It's not that I hate you, it's just that I don't want you to exist. >:-b

Sincerely,

Conservative
