Worst religion

[Blake]

All the experts expounding on a subject they know little about. I
think that Yonivore came closes to being right.

Ah, well, what's new.

Yoni being more right than anyone else would be new.

[Yonivore]

Huh

should have read, "...don't WITH us..." But, I don't want atheists ing us either.

[FuzzyLumpkins]

They remind me of high school bullies or the fat rich kid in high school when they talk about religion. Their common meme is meme is "I don't believe in fairy tales". They mock it from the get go and really are a waste of time to have a conversation about it.

Am I the only one that notices the irony of this statement?

[clambake]

Am I only one that notices the irony of this statement.

no

[FuzzyLumpkins]

That's not true, from what I understand. They do believe that only 144k will go to Heaven, but they do NOT believe anyone is going to , as they don't even believe exists. They believe that if you aren't part of the 144k that goes to Heaven, you either simply just die (and no spirit lives on), or you will live on forever, happy, on a Heaven-like NEW Earth (as the Bible says there will be) with no sickness, death or sadness, etc.

Just sayin..

You're right. They interpret to be emptied once Armageddon hits and only have to stay there until then. You are still subject to the 144k.

[clambake]

so, they're all religiously fighting for 144k spots?

thats lol

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Yeah but it's not as fearmongering as most Christian sects. They interepret some verse to mean the 12 tribes of Israel are going to have 12 something that will do 1000 something and they will be the chosen ones.

Most religions when you boil them down to basic tenants come to stuff like this. It's no worse than flying elephants or asexual reproduction.

[Trainwreck2100]

Religions aren't the problem, zealots are, and they come in all shapes and sizes be them christians, muslims, or atheists.

[LnGrrrR]

What's the appropriate number to know?

Well one would be a good starting point...

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Religions aren't the problem, zealots are, and they come in all shapes and sizes be them christians, muslims, or atheists.

Religions and zealotry go hand in hand.

Yoni you make out all athiests are wits and people with religion are superior moral beings. All my friends are religious to some extent. I am the only one without religion and not really sure about a god. I respect my friend's views and they respect mine. Just like I've been judged hard for having no religion and even told I'm an idiot, going to , without morals etc. Don't make out you're better than people without religion. What gives you that right? Didn't Jesus say something about don't throw rocks unless you're without sin? Are you perfect?

[Yonivore]

Actually, I don't.

All my friends are religious to some extent. I am the only one without religion and not really sure about a god. I respect my friend's views and they respect mine. Just like I've been judged hard for having no religion and even told I'm an idiot, going to , without morals etc.

Sounds like my circle of friends except, there are some I don't even know how they feel about religion.

Don't make out you're better than people without religion. What gives you that right?

I don't.

Didn't Jesus say something about don't throw rocks unless you're without sin?

Be careful, Adam Smith only quoted one verse of Proverbs 25 when he should have probably been familiar with, at least, one more.

Are you perfect?

Far from it. But for the Grace of God, I deserve to burn in , for eternity, for my sins.

[AussieFanKurt]

Well how come you're going on about how bad athiests are then? And how they should make their own country etc

[Spurminator]

Yonivore be trollin'. Slow day at the nursing home.

[ALVAREZ6]

I think atheists should start their own country.

It would certainly be a much smarter country than the USA today.

lol majority of citizens electing presidents due to faith (or no faith)
lol George W. Bush = man of faith = OK I vote for him
lol country that likes to think there is a separation of church and state
lol re s

[ALVAREZ6]

Atheism is the worst religion because, it's a faith built on destroying all other faiths. Wait, that's radical Islam, as well. Okay, both of them.

And on a more serious note, not really. It's not a religion.

Most atheists simply don't want to be bombarded by other religions and have other people's religious beliefs influence their lives via laws. On the other hand, religions people (Christians in particular, because we're talking about the US) on average are pro-religion-influenced laws, directly affecting other nonreligious people. Christianity is all about pushing their ideas onto everyone else and not being content with the freedom to simply practice their personal religion in their personal lives. Any law based on any religion should have no place in 21st Century USA.

[Clipper Nation]

lol country that likes to think there is a separation of church and state

There is a separation of church and state established in the First Amendment, but it's been long since undermined by slimy, bigoted neocons pandering to the worst instincts of the redneck trailer-park base, tbh....

[ALVAREZ6]

I've found most atheists are.

Not true, but you probably perceive this because most atheists in the US are probably fed up with Christianity having a large presence in government to the point where they've gone ing crazy.

[FuzzyLumpkins]

So I was curious what do you guys think about these guys?

http://theflatearthsociety.org/cms/

Do they deserve our respect?

[Yonivore]

Not true, but you probably perceive this because most atheists in the US are probably fed up with Christianity having a large presence in government to the point where they've gone ing crazy.

So, then, it is true.

[Yonivore]

And on a more serious note, not really. It's not a religion.

It absolutely is a religion. Atheists have, as an article of faith, there is no God.

[Yonivore]

It would certainly be a much smarter country than the USA today.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

you. You leave.

[Yonivore]

Well how come you're going on about how bad athiests are then? And how they should make their own country etc

I never said "all atheists," you did.

And, those who have an issue with the religious foundations of the United States should just go and found their own country.

[Trainwreck2100]

And on a more serious note, not really. It's not a religion.

As much as I hate to agree with yoni it is absolutely a religion.
