:LOL: I haven't forgotten my time as a Christian in the least - it's a big part of why I'm an atheist now, after all. ;) But even when I was a member of the faithful, I never understood this need to "prove" aspects of the faith, because for me, believing without proof was the entire point...

Utilizing circular logic, but whatever, I guess it still has the word "logic" in it. ;) :LOL: I don't view all of you as idiots, just mostly the young earth creationist types. The only real problem I have with any religious folks is when they try to legislate their religious views on the...

Ah, a humanitarian I see. ;)

Except my point was to criticize this odd need to "prove" religious mythology and doctrine when one of the things Jesus said when it came to people wanting proof of his miracles was that you really shouldn't need proof to believe. That's why faith is called faith, after all. ;) I also made a...

:LOL: The whole point of having faith is that there is no proof. You and others seem to keep forgetting that I used to be Christian myself. The whole point of that quote is that you shouldn't need proof to believe in the word. It's also a passage that often gets trotted out by...

Yeah, that was kind of my point. Did you not read the whole thing and just jumped to the end or something?

And I think people who think there is any "proof" of god or any aspect of their religion are not only delusional, but breaking an important aspect of their own religion. "Blessed are they that have not seen and yet believed." ;)

I think we can all come together on our hatred of vegans. :LOL:

Yeah, well, let he who would move the world first move himself. ;)

That isn't what this Republic stands for, though. I thought that was part of the point of this board even existing.

The obvious that atheists are a minority, therefore it's okay to make their lives hell?

With that statement in response to mine, it looks like you support tyranny of the majority.

So you support tyranny of the majority then?

Actually the main reason atheism isn't fun is thanks to religious people not leaving well enough alone. :rolleyes:

Your "truth" is nothing more than slanderous propaganda. If all you can do is repeat it mindlessly, then I hate to break it to you, but you're just the right wing version of an NPC. :rolleyes: It's pretty simple actually - it's based mainly in the golden rule. This is also why libertarianism...

Yeah, just keep in mind that a fair number of atheists are not commies. But, yeah, the modern social justice commies are pretty damn dogmatic - that's one of the things I like to bash them about. ;)

If you're a psychopath maybe. I hate to break it to you, but you're talking to an atheist who has a pretty solid moral framework. It's been built up over my life from my parents and other role models I had. A large number of my friends are the same, and it'd apparently surprise you, but most...

They were polytheistic. The Greeks and Romans had their gods and goddesses for a lot longer than Judaism and Christianity has been around. You realize that them and Islam are still referred to as "young" religions, right? I could make the same kind of argument about any religion presiding...

:rolleyes: Now you just sound full of yourself.

I am.
