Why do atheists care. [rhet]

I can't quite believe that you've been arguing for nine pages over whether the O.P. contains a generalization or not.

No that is not at all what I was saying.

I was trying to cover all my bases and make my point absolutely clear...
apparently that just added a new point of confusion 🙁

The prefix 'many' is not a requirement for the statement not to be a generalisation.

No, you just misread his post.

He was saying he was wrong about what the word generalisation meant, and that with
the new definition of generalisation, the sentence in the op did not contain a generalisation.

So you have his meaning backwards.

I can. It's typical 'moderate' theist/Christian behaviour when an atheist criticises extremists of their religion.

Rather than simply join in condemning the extremists, the moderate will instead attack the atheist, providing
cover and support for the extremist they apparently disagree with. But only ever say so as an afterthought.

Blatant lies will get you nowhere and only expose the fact that you know you are wrong. I admitted no such thing and you know it.

For you certainly.

Yes, I admitted that I was wrong about the meaning of the word 'generalization'. I did not admit I was wrong about what you have now claimed I admitted being wrong about, which makes you either a poor reader or a liar.

Not a chance. Be man enough you admit you are wrong or forever join the flat earthers club. (freaky, sonship, robbie and a few more that would rather look utter fools than admit they are wrong about something.).
