Atheism

[Mister D]

I visited once with a guy who said he was an athiest, when I doubted his statement he looked at me and said

" I am an athiest, I swear to God"

I just walked off shaking my head in amusement.

Why do Christians feel so superior?

Is it because we are not saved perchance?

It's just an amusing story, Pen. I seriously doubt that LoVE feels superior to you.

Actually...

I was just thinking about this today.

$#@! atheists, $#@! believers. I'm $#@!ing sick of hearing "I'm a ____". Who $#@!ing cares? Are you that insecure that you feel the need to jam your belief (or disbelief) down everyone's throats?

Just shut the $#@! up already and revel in your stance. Keep your beliefs to yourself, I don't want to $#@!ing hear about it.

here is what I don not understand about athiesm:

why do they believe that Humanity is just another form of existance that is no different than say a $#@!roach or a branch of simian. Humans are the only "animal" that can reason, create tools, and in general think outside the box so to speak.

How is it that they beleive in evolution when the itis readily apparent that even though all humans are the same biologically each and everyone of us is yet each of us is unique inour own peculiar way, take fingerprints for example, we all have fingerprints yet no two people are the same now there are over 6 billion people on this planet yet we are all distinct from one another in certain regards.

why is it that Athiest don't belive in God or at least a supreme designer, and this is fine if that is what they choose to believe. but the questions remains why do they spend so much time railing against something that they don't belive exists, and want everyone else to agree with their line of thought.

considering Pendragon claims to be an Athiest maybe he would like to respond to these questions.. now anyone can respond if they choose to but he is the only one so far that has stated that he is an Athiest.

That is something I have commented on before. It's bizarre.

I will have more to say later, however for now I will state that many Atheists have been done great harm by organized religion. We see this same suffering on our fellow man and wish to provide solace from this abuse. Furthermore we wish to prevent the younger ones from being equally harmed. There are myriad examples of religion destroying lives, from sexual predators who are shuffled around in the Catholic churches to Fundamentalists who bleed the senior members of their congregation dry with their demands for financial reimbursements. This is not to say that all religion is bad, just to say that it should be easy to understand why so many logical thinkers are so against it.

Subsequent to that is the entire logical argument which holds that without evidence of existence, there is no reason to believe. I am a factual being and see no reason to change my nature which has served me well in all aspects of life.

This is a silly argument reminiscent of the rambling of that pickled Marxist, Chris Hitchens. Secondly, logical positivism is dead. It's eulogy was written before you were born. But I await the more you will say later.
