I think everyone is free to believe what they wish to believe. If you believe in God, God is real. If you don't believe in God, God isn't real. Same applies to any other religion.
I'm a Toasterfarianist, ALL WHO DO NOT BELIEVE IN THE GREAT TOASTER SHALL BURN FOR ALL ETERNITY IN THE FIRES OF HIS HIGHEST SETTING!
This kind of anti-theist slander is really old and distasteful. It started with that "pastafarian" crap and has ended up with everyone's little unfunny mini-version of it.

Why is any belief system less fit for criticism and slander than the other? If you have any belief, about anything, you can more or less expect someone to have a problem with it on some level. Theism or none.

You missed the point. My point is that it's not funny, not that theism isn't deserving of criticism.

If your point can have a tree drawn out mentally, and resolve to more than 3 viable interpretations, chances are it's more an issue of miscommunication.
No one inherently has to miss the point, if there wasn't a solidly defined point to begin with.

I don't have a clue what you're even talking about. There was definitely a point, you just missed it.
And you don't see the problem with that statement. You just keep missing it.
I've already explained my problem with the little "pastafarian" esque jokes and my problem is based solely on opinion, albeit I think it's sorta justified.
EDIT: This isn't even worth talking about, just forget it.
I'm fine with the idea of something larger than the universe, beyond our reach, itself, but the way religion presents I disagree with.
I mean, if there was a God, why would it care about us. We're microscopic creatures on a weeny teeny planet somewhere randomly in the Universe. Our existence wouldn't matter at all so I don't see why something that can control the entire universe would give a damn about us
