Atheism

live the life ya love.,.,.,love the life ya live

G*d is mental heroin....... after all the time spent on it...what a waste when you could have been contemplating the real mysteries of life instead of made up ones.

I AM telling you the truth, God is freedom.

Freedom from thought.
Freedom from responsibility.
Freedom from rationality.

Give me the shackles of sensibility, and I will hobble along a happy prisoner, seeing the world through rational eyes.

It's strictly comfort thought.... nothing more. I prefer reality, even if it's served up cold and bloody.

The Lord is surely more than comfort thought.

"God" does not exist as a supernatural entity that created the cosmos and time itself. "God" was just like you and me but from another planet; possibly another universe. There where many of them that came to Earth as man kind was evolving to what we are now. Being as intelligent as they were to travel the cosmos, they altered our DNA to make the final product of what we are (thats why we cant find the missing link). Since they came from the sky and had all sorts of cool beans technological stuff we thought of them as gods.....(No I am not a Scientologist)

I find it funny that theres more evidence that can prove that this theory is correct then there is to prove the almighty "GOD" does exist. After reading this thread I also find it pretty humorous that all the people that believe in "God" thought that this was started as a deliberate and ignorant attack on their religious beliefs, and thusly started posting all sorts of arguments and started name calling. Just because most of the world believes in "God" doesn't make it true, and just because there are atheists in the world doesn't mean you need to attack them for posting their beliefs online. Go ahead and tear this post apart and call me ignorant, I know you want to. Did you ever stop and think that the original post was meant for other atheists to read and gain enlightenment from? No probably not, you saw it as a direct threat of someone trying to convert you to their way of thinking, I get it you're used to trying to convert others to believe what you do. So you think anyone expressing a different train of thought than you must be trying to convert you.

I used to be an atheist, now I AM enlightened.

Not really.... the only source which says it's true is the source which benefits from you believing it is true.

Comfort thought.... but hardly free comfort thought. $$$$$ ka-ching!!! Step right up!!

You have zero proof of any of this, and you expect to be taken any more seriously than the sky-god stories?

You should watch the "Discovering Ardi" documentary, which addresses the "Missing Link" issue. We continue to find fossils which take human evolution farther and farther back in time. Just because finding fossils is harder than finding change in your couch is no reason to suddenly fill in the blanks with gods or aliens.

Every week flyers are delivered to your home. If you don't see the kid delivering them, does that mean that Bigfoot has gotten into the marketing and distribution business?

There are transitional fossils for many branches of the evolutionary tree. We're simply searching for examples of proto-humans who were small in number, smart enough not to commonly be caught in the situations that made for good fossilization, and are situated in areas that are extremely inhospitable for research.

Good for you. Do you want a cookie? j/k j/k thats mean lol.
Of all the posts from believers yours where actually the most descent and not attacking of others beliefs. I can't say the same for the others who believe in "God".. I do know for a fact that you do not need to believe in god to have peace on earth. I do not believe in any form of god and I lead a very peaceful life. What needs to happen for a peaceful world is for people to stop telling each other what to believe. If you believe in "God", ancient aliens, Zeus, the almighty tea pot, or even Fonzie (if you pick Fonzie you chose correctly), thats great. Just let it bring peace to your life and don't let it intervene on other beliefs and ways of living. Only then can we live without war and ignorance.

You don't get your post torn apart my friend, Just a nice big cyber hug. Daawwwwwwww~

I agree with you completely though, It also brings to mind a specific situation that was frequenting fark.com semi recently in the last few months. Its of an atheist advertisement calling to other atheists that it was okay and others like them were in the area. Lets just say, long story short, the religious types had a hay-day about it. This happens all the time and it pisses me off. Religions bash and bash and bash us. Our character, our views, our intellectuals and stances, yet when it's the other way around, not even that far; when we merely ask for concrete evidence or valid stance and backed up 'opinion' we have to have 'integral respect' for other peoples 'beliefs'. It's socially improper to question it, such a tender spot it is, quite the nice shield of ignorance they have going there. Just because we don't look at atheism as a belief doesn't mean you guys can bash us for agreeing with it based on the information gathered and evidence supporting. everywhere I look I'm advertised Jesus, allah and almost every other f&%king god as much as I am some nice converse shoes. You know the difference in that though? Religious to commercial advertising? one thing:

They do a damn good job in making me want those shoes. Why? they have evidence, research and history in making good fucking shoes. I believe in that advertisement, because of what they've shown and supported with there claims of quality. So, I go to the store and get me some physical shoes, and they sell some damn nice shoes let me tell you. All I get from the other is headache headache headache, and lets not talk about answers. You don't even ask questions; taboo, remember? But hey, it's cool because it's not advertised to me. Rather, to other religious types and those others interested. And here is my point,

Long story short, if you're religious and interested in atheistic stance then by all means, please join in. I'm interested in hearing your philosophical view points/questions and answers regarding religion and atheism, truly. If however, you are simply close minded and want to banter and yell, to prostrate yourselves before us in a tantrum like rage, professing all the glories to your god and damning us in our own 'ignorances' to your higher 'being' go some place else. We really don't care.

I don't believe the ancient alien theory personally. I just got really high and watched that show on History channel called "Ancient Aliens" and I gotta say there is a lot of artifacts that are still to this day unexplainable, and the show has some pretty descent theoretical answers.

I was posting the ancient alien theory sarcastically. I was trying to show how people will believe anything they're told when the truth hasn't been exactly found just yet. Just like with religion people only believe because of thousands of years of that being the only answer to "why are we here?"

It's odd how other people can see reality quite well, you still seem to be missing most of it.

I don't start getting aggressive about anything till you show extreme ignorance on a subject.

You are an abrasive and compulsive liar...nothing more.
You live life to tear others apart for Christianity's PAST. You ask a question, and when someone DOES humbly answer, YOU ATTACK like a madman......and now you want to wear a halo--with the help of your atheist friends that attack without knowing what it is they even attack?
Don't talk to me about ignorance. You are the EPITOME of it.
You ask a question and then when someone answers, you ALREADY had your attack ready for display without reading.
NUMEROUS times throughout this and other threads you accused me of having PERSONAL beliefs that DID NOT even exist...I never even so much as alluded to a belief you accused me of. Get off your high horse.
You live to FIGHT and be obnoxious.
Lose the halo.
You didn't earn it....not for even a tenth of a second.

O-hi Babs,
I'm giving out free digital hugs in case you didn't know. soooooo, you can have one. Only if you prrrrooommiiisee more smiles and no more of this arguing silly business. Okay?

The whole religion thing has to stop. Too many threads on beliefs... let's talk about getting high and growing some smoke instead.

Speak to your buddies P and CJ......I'm all smiles so long as I'm not being treated the way I have been here.

You guys are going to be so bored when none of us believers show up for you to bash.

But hey.....you can always RUDELY crash their "beliefs" sight.....as is evidently done daily.

Gets lonely having these empty beliefs....I get it.
