(36,900 posts)Making the obvious inference that "theists" means all theists is a "misrepresentation", but it doesn't mean some theists either. What it really means is "equating theism itself as prima facie evidence of a logical deficiency", which absolutely doesn't mean all theists. This perfectly explains why he used the word "theists" instead of theism.
In order to make sense of this argle bargle, one must consider the possibility of the deist-theist, who absolutely do exist even though it's an oxymoron. The deist-theist is not really a theist at all you see and could potentially not be logically deficient (although it's hard to imagine how that works). So you see this potential exception means we just cannot take this seemingly absolute statement as primitive-fascism.
