Thunderfoot doesn't represent Atheists. He represents his own perspective on life.
It is all well and fine that most atheist like to think they are individual (as in not part of any oganized religion), but in the end, they are part of a group of people who believe no god exists. Thunderfoot was representing the side of atheists.
Thunder did a piss-poor job of stealing the thunder against the self-righteous fallacies ray was throwing at him. Thunder fared better in the discussion about evolution and the importance of knowledge
- "Once we determine that knowledge is good, then when you spread disinformation then you are committing harm".
- "you are free to say anything you want, you are also free to poop in the street, but that is still anti-social."
Thunder was being an intellectual. Ray was being a self-righteous simple truck. Thunder shoul have kept it simple stupid. When Ray made the example of the paint being created by a painter, Thunder should have perhaps asked and who created the painter, then who created the creator of the painter. Instead Thunder went into an intelligent explanation, that I no longer remember.
