well a lot of them are like vegans. they cant survive unless they tell fucking everyone that theyre atheists, and then they get into a pseudo-scientist debate about religion and gravity or some shit.


personally, i think atheism is just as audacious and stupid as religion, and the more zealous followers are essentially the same thing, but with different beliefs. lack of evidence evidence (atheists), and what you want to believe isnt evidence (religious people). i think its best to be agnostic and not an asshole about it.

I don't disagree. I simply can't ignore that the atheist won't try to strip basic rights of a group of citizens because a book tells him/her that the group is sub-human.

Atheist came out in fucking droves in this thread. Never could understand how they could debate on something so fiercely that isn't supposed to exist. Too funny.

Coming from someone who is non-religious myself, Atheists are 100% as bad as any organized religious follower. Just like a hardcore Christian/Catholic/Muslim etc they seek to undermine your beliefs, replace them with their own, and force people to believe what they believe (or in this case, don't believe) and anyone that doesn't is a giant piece of shit.

They are absolutely no better than religious fanatics.

That's true. If fact they're far more inclined to push for everyone benefitting from human rights.


However.



Even if a doctor can cure you, if he's a giant douche, you're probably goin to ignore his medical knowledge and just think of him as a douche.



Also, lack of proof isn't proof. We should all be reasonable and say "the universe is kinda big and we really dont know what's out there"

who cares why someone tries to strip basic rights of a group of citizens? why does it matter if it's because of a book or because they're just intolerant? because many atheists are just as likely as many religious people to abridge basic rights.

choosing what you believe about the meaning of life and whether/to what extent you want to partake in religious tradition is as basic a human right as any other, and some atheists are hostile toward that right.

some atheists also try to hide the ball by turning things like homosexuality and contraception into human rights issues while painting contrary religious principles as some kind of superstitious voodoo blocking progress. the fact is that religious freedom is a basic right just like homosexuality, and in fact, there is a far greater tradition of religious freedom than of sexual freedom. does this mean one right should always trump the other? no. but some atheists, just like some religious people, are far too quick to dismiss the right they don't like and defend the one they do.

fact is that these are usually hard questions that don't have easy answers. sometimes religious freedom needs to yield to individual rights. but sometimes religious freedom needs to be defended, even if you don't like the way that freedom is being used

Atheists postulate there isn't a god. Theists postulate there is.

What's the difference?

Nah atheists say there isn't a reason to assume there is a god.

Some people just want to watch the world learn.
