Why does fp always have to argue about a non-issue like this?

A dictionary can't define someone's way of thinking.
I still know many people in my school that think the earth is 2000 years old
[QUOTE=asdfghjkl';29658127]Why does fp always have to argue about a non-issue like this?[/QUOTE]
Because people are fucking stupid, and instead of focusing on actual issues they make this non issue into an issue. Because people are fucking stupid.
Did I mention how fucking stupid people are?

It can once you realize what Atheism is. Here, I'll even give you a website so you don't have to try google.

Except it was. Because it has nothing to do with Atheism. And you would realize this if you would simply pick up a dictionary.

No I'm not reading that.
Someone tell me precisely what they think the belief system of an Atheist goes.
[QUOTE=Frayyyy;29656303]Predestination as you said it was a doctrine created by the Calvinists, not the Catholic Church which of course is the most significant and it is not recognized by them
The Catholic Church does say that things are done according to God's plan however free will for all people is something that is included within that plan
(And not referencing you) The biggest problem with these threads is that most people act extremely anachronistic in placing all types of modern views on periods and events where they cannot apply[/QUOTE]
If God knows, or can know, what will happen, free will is an illusion, no matter what the Catholic Church says.

Alright, fine asshole. I'll tell you what fucking atheism is. I'll do your homework for you. Don't say I don't contribute.
Definition of ATHEISM
a : a disbelief in the existence of deity
b : the doctrine that there is no deity
[QUOTE=AK'z;29658230]No I'm not reading that.

There is no God, gods, or any other deity or all-powerful being. Atheism has nothing to do with anything (eg evolution, the big bang) ONLY the disbelief in a deity. People who assume an atheist believes in those things is uneducated

it's really not a compli-fucking-cated idea
an atheist doesn't think there's such a thing as gods
that's it
this isn't complex dynammical thermal theory or whatever

Correct.
This definition of atheism is pointless.
It does not mean beliefless yet is only defined by "no existence of god".

What are you talking about?
You are an atheist by definition! You don't get to argue! That's not how definitions work!

It's all in the mind, basically.
I haven't seen a god in the real world, but I have experienced things in life that have moved me.
I don't really care how others want to define it because I'm not a sheep.

It's true, you can't really render official definitions false at a whim.

Sure, I've been moved by things as well, but it doesn't mean a greater power did it. Emotions are emotions.

Yes you are. You are a sheep by my definition of sheep, which isn't your definition of sheep because I'm not a lemming.
