[QUOTE=Zambies!;22187580]How do we KNOW its holy watered blessed by a priest, they could of gone to any old water tap and dumped that on.[/QUOTE] the point is still there.. and lol, who cares if it was blessed by a priest and shit? you believe that it makes it somehow special?
Uh... that is the definition of holy water. I guess what we all learn here is to be tolerant and leave it at that.

Yeah they were being pretty thick, and I admit that.
Oh boy it's time for the good old definition of atheist and applying pragmatic logic to existential questions debate.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;22188497]Good job, we know where you stand.

[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;22188497]Good job, we know where you stand. Somehow being an atheist means you attack everyone that's a theist in your opinion, at least that's how you act.[/QUOTE] I believe that no more than you believe theists automatically attack atheists.
[QUOTE=Mexican;22188545]I believe that no more than you believe theists automatically attack atheists.[/QUOTE] I don't believe that at all however. You're a presumptuous one, aren't you? but by your actions and words against atheists all over this forum, I can practically say you do hold that opinion.

I thought this thread was going to die peacefully. :saddowns:
I find it sad how pseudo-intellectuals say i'm not using logic. I said Atheism is a belief. A belief that has no proof. You can't just call it something else. You draw it from what you believe. I still wonder how exactly not believing in a God is still not a belief in itself. You can't just have and anti-belief.

You guys are taking this too seriously imo it's just funny

You're on no different ground than anyone else, and you're acting so blatantly superior it's actually fucking sad. How do you reject a belief you don't hold? that's how you define atheism, that isn't what atheism is. If you were never introduced to the idea of a greater being, would it be a belief you held to not believe in it? FUCK NO IT ISN'T. It's a lack of a belief, which is, contrary to how you think is not a belief in and of itself. It's simply the lack of one. Pseudo intellectual my ass.
[QUOTE=Mr. Scorpio;22179550]I'd have whipped around and punched them in the fucking throat. Most likely in a very spazzy, "holy shit I just got drenched in cold ass water fuck me fuck" way.[/QUOTE] wow you so cool man "someone threw water on me!" and then you punch them in the throat yeah, uh, no. - related to news article: was it even worth posting? it's just water
[QUOTE=davidofmk771;22188734]so nobody believes that there is no god[/QUOTE] If you accept there is a god, and then deny/reject his existence, that's not the same as simply not asserting anything at all.
[QUOTE=davidofmk771;22188734]so nobody believes that there is no god[/QUOTE] uh, did I say that? you're saying that atheism is a belief. it's not.
[QUOTE=HumanAbyss;22188741]If you accept there is a god, and then deny/reject his existence, that's not the same as simply not asserting anything at all.[/QUOTE] atheist reject the belief of a god dude
[QUOTE=davidofmk771;22188762]atheist reject the belief of a god dude[/QUOTE] [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_atheism[/url]
only in the same way as most people reject belief in the tooth fairy if you define "belief" that way then every possible idea and perception is a "belief" and the word becomes meaningless
[QUOTE=davidofmk771;22188762]atheist reject the belief of a god dude[/QUOTE] Nope. You're still failing to acknowledge that a lack of a belief, not asserting anything, not saying something, is saying something specific. (according to you) What does a person who has never been introduced to that belief "believe in" in your opinion? Do they hold a belief? Have they FUCKING REJECTED SOMETHING THEY DON'T BELIEVE IN? No.
[QUOTE=JDK721;22188777][url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_atheism[/url][/QUOTE] look, im saying that everything you believe is a belief. most people believe in gravity, but some dont. a belief is saying that something is true. thanks for the info tho bro
