Religious people trust atheists as much as they trust rapists, study finds.

[QUOTE=Mon;33563368]everyone knows the south is bad - but it's not like it's fucking deliverance or anything
if you're looking for the shitbags, you'll find them - but that doesn't mean that christians are universally shitbags. that applies to pretty much everywhere - a preacher from liberia won't be the same as a preacher from norway. don't make general assumptions about christians from the bible belt - not all of them are bible-thumping asshats[/QUOTE]
What are you talking about. When did I EVER say something like all Christians are universally shitbags. Do you comprehend anything I say. We aren't even arguing about that, why do you have it in your head.

the point i'm trying to make is that christians aren't as bad as you think
from what you're saying, they're all a bunch of preachers who (at least in the south) love to shove their views down everybody's throats

And I know they aren't all as bad as they are in the south. The only point I was trying to make was that you said
"figured you exaggerated on that because that borders on hate speech and would do a pretty shit job at getting new members
most of the time they just talk about light and salvation and shit"
And I responded that hes not exaggerating. And hes not, but you don't seem to believe that.
Well that's that then, they have us all figured out. We are a forum filled with rapists atheists.
After the reading this thread I get the feeling there is something like an Atheist church or something in the USA. You are an Atheist for yourself, you take what you think is right and belive in that. Nobody tells you what you should believe.
I find this kind of disgusting. I myself am deeply spiritual, but I have no problem whatsoever with nonbelievers. Hell, a lot of my good friends are Atheists and Agnostics.
Fuck christ, pray baphomet
j/k
[QUOTE=MasterG;33563502]I wouldn't mind most religious people if they had read their holy texts and were acting based on its content, not what some preacher has told them it says. Most of the time I find that I know more about the bible than my christian friends do. Because I read the thing a few times when I was an agnostic.[/QUOTE]
You read the whole things a few times?

There's no actual Church if that's what you mean. An Atheist does what he feels is right, not what a book or preacher tells him what he should feel is right.
[QUOTE=KmScMT;33561629]well being an atheist is pretty much raping the truth, and the word of God, so yeah[/QUOTE]
Kinda like your avatar?
That aside and on topic, I'm not religious or atheist.
I.... Just don't give a shit if God is real or not. :v:
Christian/Jewish/Buddhist/Atheist/Whatever?
Good for you!
Just don't shove it down my throat and I won't care.
By not giving a shit I manage to avoid a lot of conflict.

Yeah, bestiality is frowned upon. It would be a shame if there was a heaven, and God knew all about his masturbation to pony porn.
Yay, I'm considered on the same level as a sexual predator, and I'm only 15. FUCK YOU AMERICA

I wonder what they think of Agnostics?
Is there a sorting algorithm for batshit-insane comparisons?

So much rage on everything in that thing, thats so much ignorance and bullshit that its not even funny.

Strange how people are more likely to vote for a black president than they are to vote for a hispanic or Jewish one.

you think it would be a no-brainer that God would know about all his masturbation to pony porn
Almost every time I walk through town I get a bunch of different fliers from different people telling me I will burn in hell if I don't turn to Jesus.
To be honest, I'm not that trustworthy.
wow America

[QUOTE=sYnced;33561741]Atheists would rather trust a fellow atheist than a religious person.
Fact.[/QUOTE]
Trusting people in general is a bad idea, but in terms of this about who would I trust to lead a country? I would vote for the one who would do the best job, I don't fucking care if they're a man, woman, both, black, white, latino, cthulhu, atheist, christian, muslim, whatever. As long as they do their job well.

No one is :v:
The world is not almost full of honest people, it's full of almost honest people.
I kinda understand them. I wouldn't vote for a person whose political options are strongly influenced by different religious views either.
Am I the only person on this forum that's Agnostic?
I might not like some aspects of religion, but I do understand that it does bring people together in times of need, and besides, what would you rather believe if given a choice? - That there is nothing after death, or that there's an afterlife where you can live for eternity?
And while I do agree with some claims Atheists have made, I'm really bothered by the outright silly atheists that get into a hissy-fit whenever they see a cross and so on.
I'd rather wait until there's true evidence that proves or disproves the existence of a god. Until then, I try to stay out of arguments about religion.
Well that is pretty messed up. What I find funny is that there's a bible story (Good Samitarian) that actually says that just because someone else is different or has different opinions than you doesn't mean you shouldn't treat them as a good neighbor.
Well, I dunno, but the dudes who believe in a god that tells them that you should stone people who work during sundays, eat shellfish, wear cloth made of two different materials, says raped women should marry their rapist and to spread the word by sword and fire are a little less trustwhorthy than those who don't, wouldn't you agree?
Oh, and sell your daughter as a sex slave while you're at it
[quote=bibel lol]
When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment. (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)

Do people really care this much about your religious beliefs in the states? This is fucking ridiculous. Most people I know care as much about your religious beliefs as they do about your hair colour, it's absolutely negligible.
These people are complete dumbasses. Being an atheist does not make someone a bad person.

Me too. I understand it can do some terrible things, but I think people are quick to forget it can do good things as well.
I also understand that there probably isn't a God, but also that no one religion will ever have the answer - be it the existence of a deity or not.

I just don't understand the god damned need to categorize characteristics like that. It's extremely silly and doesn't help anyone.
I couldn't care less if your atheist, Muslim, Jewish, black or white just as long as you're not a cunt.
"Studies" like these only spews more prejudice and hatred towards various groups of people.
