Egoistic Fundamentalist Verses Atheist

Fundamentalist have a projection of what 'Atheist' is in their head, which like any mortal, they failed to grasp the wisdom that "what is you think he is, is not what he is". Typically, a kind of mental projection that will fit the story included in the Holy Text. An example is when one say, "An atheist is just a believer of science (the idol)" or "An atheist worship a god of self." The latter example seems to me to be a statement made by an ego entity (a self), because only such an entity (a self) have the ability to project an opposite self. That is to say, when a fundamentalist say "You worship a god of self", he made the most fundamental error of projecting his "self", thereby contradicting his own doctrine by not "bringing glory to God" and but to himself.

A fundamentalist always speaks behind a kind of curtain. When you speak to one, you are not really speaking to him but his phantom self - a kind of super ego defense mechanism that is activated when Personal Values are threatened. Of cause, fundamentalist can quote that Holy Text does talks about this ego as what is preventing You (the atheist) from reaching the objectified God entity. However, what that is easily missed is that what a mortal person projected about another person is most of the time applicable to himself too. Which means if the rule of the game is about Ego, when a fundamentalist eagerly tries to defend his faith, he is also committing the so-called sin of self worship, the way he claim atheist tries to deny faith.

I wonder if anyone ever tried talking to fundamentalist while presenting oneself just like a fundamentalist. That eliminates defensiveness which makes it impossible to carry out objective discussion. The minute you present yourself as an 'Atheist', you turn on this ego-defense mechanism in the other party which makes rejection inevitable. Once rejected you become projected as whatever the fundamentalist had learned while reading his Holy Book, and whatever more you say only serve to feed his that conclusion.

"God", now become a secondary thing, which people talk about, fancy about and get angry about. What fundamentalist are trying to uphold now is their own ego believe (which to them seem devastating if overturned), not God itself.
