[QUOTE=bravehat;23008038]I don't get why the bible was made as a self help book without all the retarded superstition and shit.[/QUOTE] Its a bit obvious
Not really, what stopped em from simply saying, "see that guy over there and that chick over there, be nice to em, treat em like you want to be treated" As opposed to saying "YOU MUST NOT BE EVIL OR ELSE YOU WILL BE RAPED AND SODOMISED WITH BURNING COCKS OF STONE AND THEN ACID JIZZ WILL BE BUST ALL UP IN YO INSIDES WHORE!!" [editline]06:10PM[/editline] Fucking double posts, How do they work!?
Religious avatar, religious debate, How is it NOT relevant? :raise: And actually most atheists are quiet as hell and just keep their beliefs to themselves, as do I until someone starts being retarded about religion and cloud man. And where's the aggression? EDIT: So you're saying there isn't a hell now, excellent I'll inform the Norse that they can have Hel back.

I don't get your point with those quotes.
[QUOTE=lockdown6;23008607] yeah, but a lot of atheists I see have to mention whenever god is mentioned that "except God doesn't exist" etc.[/QUOTE] whenever atheists say that a god does not exist, theists say that a god does exist both sides are guilty of defending their beliefs
Implying that correcting someone is an aggressive action are we? Keep in mind when I say being retarded, I don't mean being religious, I mean taking it word for word, believing the contradictory shit and pushing your beliefs on people, and stopping humanity advancing.
[QUOTE=lockdown6;23008607]that isn't really why I chose this avatar yeah, but a lot of atheists I see have to mention whenever god is mentioned that "except God doesn't exist" etc.[/QUOTE] Again, look outside the internet. No atheist that isn't a total prick goes "HA GOD DOESN'T EXIST" whenever it's brought up IRL
[QUOTE=lockdown6;23008488]again, I'm pretty sure a lot of the bible isn't supposed to be taken literally[/QUOTE] which parts, exactly. should we literally or figuratively stone homosexuals to death?
This is my point, taking none of the bible literally means it goes out the window, you take it the way its written or not at all.
Screw all this other shit... Real cool bros worship the Chaos Gods! Those guys are the shit. Satan ain't got shit on Khorne.
I fail to understand what everyone is arguing about... If you are religious then fine, you believe in your god, and if you believe that you'll go somewhere when you die then fine. Athiests, if you do not believe this then that is your opinion also. One should not try to convert the other, if god really exists i'm sure people will experience it and choose to believe it. What i do hate is that people are born into religion, have all of you religious people experienced god, specifically the one of the religion you choose to follow? or are you just going on what you've been told by old men who touch children?
You want to know what I don't get? When Christians, Western World Christians, members of one of the largest, most powerful religions in human history, exercise a persecution complex.
Does anyone know what happens when you tell a marauding theist to "treat others like you want to be treated"? Does that allow you to lynch them or do they just scream at your face and go away?

And be a bad christian :Dawkins102:

Disappointing Grief: I find it shameful that humans fight one another on religion. You cannot let one person be the cause of misconceived ideas on an entire religion. Nor can you blame modern followers of something that happened in the present time or in the past. Some humans believe because they follow a non-spiritual path of life, that they themselves are above and beyond the ignorant masses. Blatantly: They themselves are being the ones ignorant. Conclusively: It is not my duty to spread my personal beliefs around. However, I find it rather disappointing how much generalizations come into play.

[QUOTE=bravehat;23014262]:irony: Get your head out of your ass, your language and tone alone tells me you're a narcissist with no right to be one.[/QUOTE] Sincere Apology: Human I do not wish insult to you as an individual or a society. My tones and speech are generally accepted amongst your race due to my inability to communicate the way most humans do. I only wanted to voice my opinion. I encourage you to say what you feel, human, but I am not one to chastise back. Final Remark: I am apologetic, but I am ponderous as to why you are so hostile towards myself and the Elcor species as a whole. Disappointing Tone: Human, or rather, bravehat, your posts on the previous page only shatter your appeal. While I agree with a few of your statements, the overall tone and ignorance which comes out through them is saddening. I hope you do not bash people's respective beliefs like this outside of Facepunch, bravehat. Apathetic Conclusion: I wish you a fair stay on Facepunch bravehat, and that hopefully you will be more respectful to other people's beliefs. Do not think you have the right to insult other people only because of what has happened in the original post.
:smug:
[QUOTE=bravehat;23014466]:smug:[/QUOTE] Shocking surprise: Human I have been what you and Facepunch call "trolled". I applaud your ability to cause me to explain my personal beliefs. Again as mentioned, I wish you a fair day.
[QUOTE=Richard Simmons;22995202]This is true. I do love a good fiction.[/QUOTE] Considering most of the figurative language and rhetorical strategy we use today is found in the bible, yeah the people who wrote it knew what they were doing.
one of my friends is christian, and I dont say the pledge of allegiance, and she says the only reason people dont say it is cuz they know that they dont have to and it makes them feel like "rebels" I was like, bullshit, I dont say it cuz I dont believe in god, and its not right for me to say I do, especially when the school and church is supposed to be seperate
[QUOTE=lockdown6;23008488]again, I'm pretty sure a lot of the bible isn't supposed to be taken literally[/QUOTE] Eh.... leaves me wondering why people bother reading it then, especially when there are teachings and other books that cover these subjects in a more logical, literal way that is much easier to understand. The classic philosophers and even some other religions come to mind. Actually, to expand on my first comment, while arguing with christians I found out that many of them in fact [B]have not read the bible[/B].

[QUOTE=Doriol;23003109]There are atheistic religions. Everybody is agnostic. Agnostic is not a belief system. If you call yourself agnostic in relation to theism, you're literally saying that you don't know there's a God. [editline]penis[/editline] Nobody knows there's a God, therefore everybody is agnostic.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE][B]Agnosticism[/B] is the view that the [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truth_value"]truth value[/URL] of certain claims—especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deity"]deity[/URL], but also other religious and [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metaphysics"]metaphysical[/URL] claims—is unknown or unknowable[/QUOTE] So you're telling me all those who are Religious or Athiest think it's impossible to say whether there is or isn't a God? [editline]12:36AM[/editline] Plus, you pretty much just contradicted yourself with this post. [QUOTE=Doriol;23008732]whenever atheists say that a god does not exist, theists say that a god does exist both sides are guilty of defending their beliefs[/QUOTE].
I am a gnostic atheist towards the gods described to me by religion (meaning that there is effectively nill chance of them existing) I am an agnostic atheist towards all the other possible gods (meaning that there is no evidence either way but as parsimony demands, I assume that there is no god until evidence otherwise is found, so as to avoid the unnecessary multiplacation of entities.) This is how atheism generally works, from the point of view of philosophy.
IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO PROVE OR DISPROVE GOD NOBODY CARES IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD OR NOT LEAVE ME ALONE AND I'LL LEAVE YOU ALONE /caps
