The Greatest Of These Is Love: Atheist argument... →
heavy-d0se-of-atm0sphere:
There’s an issue I’d like to address, and this may be a long rant so if you’re not willing to read my opinion on an issue regarding Atheists vs. Christians then keep scrolling.
Alright, I’ve seen a few posts on here regarding this subject, and I’ve discussed it with a couple of my friends who are…
It’s nice that you want to be a teen therapist, and I hope...

So for our RS homework we have to do a picture on how we see God.
Which is difficult for me because I don’t believe in that.
My teacher said that a blank piece of paper is not acceptable…
Wtf am I supposed to do?!
Draw an empty chair.

There are billions and billions of us.
Okay. That’s a lie. I just wanted to say billions and billions.

Interesting that you mention this. Paul Ryan is the perfect example of a Christian Republican who once embraced objectivism until he learned that Rand was an atheist.

Anonymous asked: Actually, a real Christian doesn't live in fear of eternal torment, so you're right. That is a sad way to live. I would argue that if you do, you're practicing moralistic deism and not Biblical Christianity. I’m not attacking you or anything and I don’t want it to come off that way. There’s many ways to temporal peace, but only one way to eternal joy. If it’s...

Anonymous asked: In all truth, I don't know how you do it. It's so clear that you are consumed by hate. Everything on your blog is negative. It's not negative just because you don't believe in God. It almost seems like you're trying so hard to prove that God doesn't exist, when really, I think you're just trying to prove it to yourself. Being consumed by hate for anything is no...

Hit Refresh: Atheists →
heathenliving:
Today in my theory of knowledge class, we were discussing the separation of church and state when the idea of a politician’s religion affecting their acceptance by the American public was brought up. I agreed that it was a sad truth that a candidate’s religion mattered so much. Later, though,…

yewmagicalunicorn:
Why is the world we live in so complex? You have one person telling you one thing, and another one saying another. I always try and think for myself, do my own research. Y’know? The subject of the matter is religion.
I was baptised as a christian, although I’ve never really led my life the way…
In doing your research, I would suggest also researching the answers to...

chews-n-brews:
…they see “God” as this invisible man who sits in the sky and watches us like Big Brother. From what I understand (based on what I’ve learned from reading the Bible and taking classes on the subject), God isn’t a physical being. He doesn’t have set dimensions. We call Him a “he” out of respect,…

colormemichelle:
Could you guys submit your well-thought out issues with Christianity?
I’m not one who likes to debate with people about religion, but for this pretend conversation I’m supposed to make into a paper, I’d at least like some input from real people.
If you really want to know what I have to say…
1 - Christian-specific dogma borrows heavily from preexisting myths which it...

“Now let me remind you that everything would be happy dandy if you atheists...”
– (via shitsolianssay)
So doesn’t this mean you have no right to have an opinion about things you don’t believe in? Doesn’t that mean you have no right to an opinion on - say - the Hindu gods? Or the Koran? Or the books of Dawkins and Hitchens? Doesn’t that mean you...

Ask an Atheist?
Today, April 19 is officially Ask an Atheist Day. If any of you have ever wanted to ask me anything or any atheist for that matter, please feel free to post your question on my page, and I will do my best to answer. Disclaimer, I - like all atheists - speak only for myself and for no other.

onethousandtimesgoodbye:
“Religion is doing what you’re told despite what is right.” Are you serious? Sure, Christians have bigots. But in general, Christians do so much more right than atheists do. I see so much more aid for the homeless from churches. I see less drug use out of my Christian friends. Christians aren’t…

Somebody made a video of this a few years ago, and I tore it apart one argument at a time. Here’s my video where I destroyed these arguments. It’s a 3-parter. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQFi9pwGMy4

serenityinchrist:
This post is going to be hard because we’re going to get personal, but if you feel there isn’t a God because He let something bad happen in your life (or any version of that previous statement), then stick with me. I’m going to tell you what nobody ever told me and it could very well change your life. (It changed mine).
God DOES exist, God is ALWAYS in control, and GOD loves...

neverforgetseptember11:
I don’t know why that is so hard to comprehend, America is a Christian nation and it will remain one.
No, this is incorrect. America is a secular nation. The majority of America’s citizens are Christian, but the majority is dwindling. However, even were Americans 100% Christians, it still would not be a Christian nation because it is not a theocracy. Should a...

accio-yellowsubmarine:
Okay so I haven’t actually ever thought about this.
So I just changed my religious views on Facebook to “Atheist”.
But I freaked out and deleted it after a second because I realized something.
One of my best friends is really religious. How is she going to view me if she knows I don’t believe…
Let’s look at what you just wrote. You’re afraid to state...

*Flips Table*
thegoldenchemistry:
The inverse cross is one of the many symbols of Atheism. NOT SATANISM. Thank you and have a wonderful evening.
Except that it is a symbol of Satanism. But it was a symbol of Christianity first. It’s the symbol of St Peter.
Just sayin’.

Anonymous asked: Agnostics believe they have no way of knowing if there is a god or not. Athiests either believe there is no God or just reject all other religions. An atheist and an agnostic are completely different things.

So your idea to end religious conflict is to not talk about religion? Interesting. Hey, here’s an idea for how sports fans can all get along. Don’t talk about sports. Here’s an idea for how liberals and conservatives can get along. Don’t talk about politics. Here’s an idea for how men and women can get along. Don’t talk about the...

On Being the Offensive Atheist
I’ve been seeing a lot of posts lately from Christians and atheists alike offended by atheists mocking faith or dogma. Get over it, buttercup. If somebody believes literlally in the bible or the Koran or the Vedic myths or any mythology, they deserve derision. It’s a perfectly valid rhetorical device known as reductio ad absurdum. So you believe that donkey’s talk, that the Earth...

A Man and his Mind: An Argument I'm Sick of →
joshwehe:
Most atheists, and for that matter, most agnostics will point to several happenings in the Old Testament as a violation of human rights. For example, God orders the genocide of many tribes against the Israelites, supports institutionalized slavery, and advocates for high degrees of social…
This is sophistry and ultimately circular. The religious ask people who don’t...

For Him.: I want Jesus →
paolahueck:
I want Jesus to be known. I want His love to be oblivious to ‘non believers.’ They are searching for God! There’s never a limit to the things they can say about christianity, but when you go against what they say, they make you feel stupid and helpless. I’m not dumb, I know God is real and no…
Best accidental misuse of the word “oblivious” ever.
Atheist holiday colors?
pansexual-atheist-time-lord:
gamutman:
Easter is pastels.
Christmas is red and green.
Halloween is black and orange.
Chanukah is blue and silver.
St Patrick’s Day is green.
July 4th is red, white and blue.
Since Festivus has become a sort-of default atheist holiday, what colors should represent it and why?
?
I’d say…Purple and Green. Green is the color of Nature, something science...

A Letter to the Christians, Muslims and Mormons
The other day I was out digging in my back yard when I suddenly dug up an old box containing gold plates with weird glyphs on them. An angel appeared and told me to put them in a hat and he gave me special glasses to help me read them. They said that when Jesus came back to America and appeared to the lost tribes of Israel, that WAS the second coming. He says everything that happened after that...
